I know were there last year! This was our second attempt at Chasing Waterfalls! I think I might have posted those. Some are very hard to find especially in SC. NC does a better job of signage. We found Blue Sluice by accident. There was a group of young kayakers there and they told us your here! lol!

Thanks everyone for your more than generous comments! It is a beautiful part of SC. We try to get up into the hills and mountains whenever we can! Not many good places to eat even though there are a lot of expensive gated communities around Lake Jocassee and Kiowee. Go figure! ;o)
Regards, Robert!!
We were near the border a lot of the time and I wasn't paying much attention to the exact location. I was referring to the upper and lower at that location which according to my pamphlet is just inside SC. I didn't know there was an upper falls in NC. Have to check it out sometime. Thanks!

I used the D800 with 24-120 lens. The upper falls was at F22 at 1/4 sec ISO100 44 mm. They provided a handy sign to balance the camera on. The lower falls was f16 at 1/13 second hand held (no guard rail) ISO100 46 mm.

What setting did you use on the
Chau Ram River Falls, Near Winchester, SC photo
We've been exploring the waterfalls in NC and SC for a few years. We found three new ones recently. We also Kayaked again on Lake Jocassee, west of Clemson. We benefited from the wash out day before we went to the waterfalls. It poured all day, so time to visited the excellent craft shops in Seneca, SC. Hope you like the shots!

Thanks for you comment! I was in the everglades a few months ago, lots of Anhingas at the Anhinga Trail but never saw a spoony except long range behind a pond. Did get some nice shots of Purple Gallinues though. A first time for me.

Just what they told me on the tour. Think of the keys as a shallow land mass and Dry Tortuga is the southern end of the continental US and not an island far out in the Pacific Ocean! lol! Thanks for the comment! Regards, Robert

Great shots and I hope to get there someday. I believe the furthest point south in the US states is in Hawaii at Ka Lae Point on the big island and on the US territories Palmyra Island about 5 -52'-15" N. I've been to the one in Hawaii but Palmyra is also on my bucket list. chase
