We visited Tahquamenon Falls in Michigan's upper peninsula. It has an upper falls and a smaller lower falls, part of the Tahquamenon River, that empties into Lake Superior. The unique thing about the water is that it is a brownish orange color. There is a cedar swamp at the beginning of the river and the cedars leach their tannins into the water, thus the unusual color. You can see the colors in the last 3 pictures of the upper falls. Unfortunately, we had a lot of bright sun that day which made things a bit more challenging. Thanks for looking

Nice shots, Fran. Some appear over-sharpened (look at the water and leaves).

This river takes on the appearance of chocolate milk more than plain water. My shots of the same falls were made in less sunlight and the water looks much darker. The level of color seemed to vary from fall to fall. The U.P. was thought to be a vast wasteland until people got to see what is really up there. My neighbors think of the place as their "get-away" and migrate every year during "Fudgie Season." I was able to find this small falls near the shore of Lake Superior. Water flows like gold to some far-away places. Unfortunately the file is too large and will not upload into UHH.
