I have shown this area in another post but never like this here. These images were all taken with my new Tokina 12-24 mm f/4 wide angle zoom. Well...a guy has to show off his new stuff...doesn't he?

Linville Falls, the lesser...

Looking down in the spiraling vortex above the major part of the falls.

Linville Falls overlook...

Aieeee!

That's a long way down! There are people fishing down there. I used to hike down there with my flyrods and fly fish brown trout all the day long.

Thanks Larry

Yes it is a very nice lens, very well constructed and reasonably priced too, about $300.00US less than a similar Canon product.

so is this the part of the forum where we post our non macro landscapes?

Well it is our Favorite Places forum there Larry, where if you have places that you favor for shooting macro among others I suppose, you can show us where they are and what they look like, with up to four images per post only of course. Have a favorite place where you like to shoot there Larry? We would like to see...

Yea my garden is a real mess tho. With having the little uns tieing up my time I just don't have the time for gardening. Its a jungle out there,long grass,weeds everywhere. Looks a real mess but is a haven for bugs and stuff!
