A waterfall cascades down a rocky surface, partially frozen into intricate icicles and snow formations. Bare branches add a stark contrast against the white ice and dark rocks, as photographed while hiking at Spruce Flats Falls, a 30-foot tall waterfall located in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee.
Thanks for visiting!
It’s such a stunning contrast Phil, … the frozen ice sculptures, and the almost, but not quite freezing, free flowing water, … You can actually feel the chill in the air just by looking/admiring such a beautiful capture, … I’m still staring at it and now I’m picking out the bare branches in the foreground! The darkness of that rock, highlighting the whiteness of nature’s crystalline artistry, … I could go on but this comment would turn into an essay, … you know me by now, you lovely, talented man,… sending all my love from the UK to the US, …❤️❤️❤️
Yes, my darling lady, nature is a natural, sharing love for us to enjoy such artistry, appreciating her contrasts, textures and crystal shapes, glowing in icy reflections as our eyes explore each facet, both frozen in place and flowing together at the same time. It’s always a great pleasure for me to find you here, sharing an essay as you appreciate nature, as I, too, appreciate you, my lovely and sweet friend Penny. Sending all my love from the US to the UK ❤️❤️❤️

Very beautiful!
Thanks John!
Nice to see on such a hot day.
I think so, too. So glad that you like this winter scene, my friend, and I hope you have a wonderful day! 🤗
Your photo is stunning, Phil.
You’re a dear heart, sweet Mary, and I appreciate your kind words ~ thank you! ✨🤗
This is a very cool photo Phil. So unique!
Thanks so much, dear Kathy, and I appreciate your kind words. Despite the cold weather, with warm clothes the trip to the falls was definitely worth it. I’d been there several times before, though always in more seasonably tolerable weather. Have a great Wednesday my friend! 🤗

Stunning scene – the contrast of ice, rock, and bare branches creates an almost otherworldly atmosphere.
Thank you!
This is beautiful!
Thank you, Stuart 👍
Da muss man sicherlich gut augerüstet sein, um bei so einem Wetter, an diesen Wasserfall zu kommen?🙄
Ja, tatsächlich. Es ist eine kurze, aber anstrengende Wanderung mit Höhenunterschieden und einem Weg voller Steine, von denen viele rutschig vom Eis waren. Aber es hat sich auf jeden Fall gelohnt, wenn man langsam und vorsichtig ging, und ich hatte den Ort die ganze Zeit für mich allein. Ich freue mich, dass es dir gefällt, meine liebe Freundin Nicole, und wünsche dir einen wunderschönen Mittwoch. Einen Kuss. 🤗
Im Winter gibt es wenigsten keine Bären😅
Ja, Gott sei Dank! 🙂
Ich wünsche Dir einen schönen Donnerstag😀
Sie auch, lieber Nicole ~ Danke! 🤗
Breathtaking!
Thanks a bunch, my dear friend Tiffany! A ‘cool’ view, lol 🙂
It’s so striking in the ice!
Thanks so much, my dear friend Hannah. It’s cool, indeed, and I’m glad you like it ~ have a great day! 🙂
Wonderful shot!
Thanks very much, Susan. It was a bit chilly outside, but the ice was ‘cool’ 😉
