Late afternoon light hitting Pisew Falls in northern Manitoba, Canada. These are the second highest falls in Manitoba at about 13 metres and are about 30 minutes south of Thompson. The highest falls (14 metres) are at Kwasitchewan Falls, which is a 12 kilometre hike from Pisew Falls. It was a beautiful hike as it was autumn and I saw wild otters for the first time. I'd recommend the hike, but it is very long and you should be prepared to camp overnight at Kwasitchewan Falls. This photo has appeared twice in Canadian Geographic calendars.
This is a small waterfall near the parking lot of Silent Lake Provincial Park. Initially I was disappointed to see that the trees were pretty bare, but I learned that for waterfall photography, it can actually be better that the leaves are on the forest floor rather than the trees. The leaves had settled on a raised section between the water streams and I had never seen anything like it before. I put on the rubber boots I keep in the trunk for times like this and got in close with a wide angle lens.
