It has been 3 years since I've seen water at this spot. Drove by yesterday and was surprised to see it flowing well. I just can't get enough of shooting this little water fall.

That pool is likely 12' deep right now.

Black Ice · 05-10-2015, 01:49 PM

Wow! Great photos.

hoythitman · 05-10-2015, 07:22 PM

Looks like a heck of a little swimming hole. Very good pictures Casey.

tradtiger · 05-10-2015, 09:39 PM

Particularly like the top photo, with the colors in the clouds.

bassmatt72 · 05-10-2015, 09:42 PM

Pretty!

texaset · 05-11-2015, 12:34 AM

I've been told by various photographers that any one can take a picture . You have to know when and how to take a photograph ............ those are photographs !!

ahlongslide · 05-11-2015, 09:56 AM

Gorgeous photos! I want some close ups of that main tree, it has so much character

TXHUNT3R · 05-11-2015, 10:00 AM

Beautiful!

RRFishNHunt · 05-11-2015, 05:19 PM

Very nicely done!!

Larry · 05-11-2015, 05:29 PM

Very cool. You could easily do this picture taking stuff for a living.

Limbwalker · 05-12-2015, 08:44 AM

Great job.

Is that private property?

billinkb · 05-12-2015, 11:54 AM

You are a true artist with that camera.

Limbwalker · 05-12-2015, 01:03 PM

Casey, did you use a graduated ND filter on that top shot?

I did. I get them out occasionally. I have more to learn on them.

Thanks. I took these from a bridge over the creek. Nothing private about the bridge but there are no trespassing signs everywhere around it. I'm careful not to push my luck as rumor is they hammer those caught trespassing.

Randy · 05-12-2015, 01:32 PM

Beautiful

Devin · 05-12-2015, 01:46 PM

Perdy!

Cooper · 05-12-2015, 04:35 PM

Beautiful....I agree, nice looking swim hole. Thanks for sharing!!!

Cool. I've done the same many times. Heck, even parking on the side of the road in that country can get you some dirty looks.

My brother and I used to park alongside the road at some of the crossings over the Llano years ago, so we could wade fish. We got lots of dirty looks, honking horns and peeling tires throwing rocks, etc. Enough that we were afraid to get out of sight of our vehicles. Years later, they had fenced down to the bridge and had signs everywhere like you describe.

Happy Go Hunty · 05-13-2015, 06:38 PM

Holy hell Casey those are stunning !

Texassouthpaw · 05-13-2015, 06:42 PM

great looking pictures

Bill M · 05-14-2015, 04:38 PM

Excellent shots Casey.

Casey · 05-14-2015, 10:13 PM

I went back today. Things have changed! I'll be wearing this place out until I get the shot I'm after. I would like more cooperation out of the sky. Tonight felt right but didn't really go the way I wanted it to.

Bill M · 05-15-2015, 06:01 AM

Looking forward to "the" shot. Looks like much more needed water in that water shed.

Pistol · 05-15-2015, 06:44 AM

Those are great Casey, and I bet it is more than 12' deep now!!

BIG BONE · 05-15-2015, 03:28 PM

great pics

Grand Passage · 05-17-2015, 05:09 PM

Great shots of a unique place!

I remember the first time time I saw those falls, but there has not been much/any water since then. Glad to see them flowing again.

mojorider · 05-17-2015, 05:19 PM

Beautiful!

Mudbug · 01-27-2022, 07:46 PM

That's only part of the falls go Downstream from there and there's a huge waterfall dropped off into a giant pool I used to swim there as a kid when the owner used to charge a small fee to get in now it's owned by somebody else and they keep it all private.

WyoBull · 01-28-2022, 10:55 AM

Great shots, Casey!

This is not the true "Edge Falls" but it up the creek from it and accessible by public road. The real Edge Falls is not accessible to the public.

Thanks for the comments on these old pics! That place hasn't had any real amount of water in some time.

Stickslinger92 · 01-28-2022, 12:11 PM

Looked up the location on maps and that creek is bone dry. Also looked on satellite view and can see the big pool and the real "Edge Falls" downstream. That would be something awesome to see.

What are the specs on your shots? Shutter speed? Stacked images etc? I feel like it would be an awesome location for a night shot too!

I didn't know! Thought the video was awesome.

Casey · 01-28-2022, 12:52 PM

Another one from later that same summer. This is one of my faves.

Looks like some good flow! Hopefully it continues to just like that

jdma · 01-29-2022, 08:59 PM

great shots Casey! It's only about 45 minutes from me. I need to make a plan to get over there and take a look. What size lens were you using

chongo · 01-30-2022, 07:53 PM

Digging the last one. Beautiful location and captured well, good job Casey.
