Waimea Falls
I felt sad for the people there. I never expected Hawaii would be in a drought situation.
This fall was just struggling to make it over the rocks, and had seen photos of it in better time.

Beautiful shot! I was only on Hawaii briefly during my last trip and got caught at the viewing platform here in a downpour so my shot wasn't so crisp.

At the suggestion of another member, I'm adding this image to this thread... Iron Creek Falls, in the foothills of western Washington, not far from Mt St Helens. Yes, THAT Mt St Helens... ;)

Interesting fall.
Does it disappear underground? Or is there a stream flowing from its base?

No, there's a stream flowing from the base, you cannot see it from that viewpoint, it's more to the left where those people are.
But the stream is small, because the amount the water that goes down the waterfall is smaller than it seems. But on winter is higher.

Here's another view of the same waterfall, you can see the lagoon:

Thanks. Yes it is very pretty, even in low flow.
The mosses and ferns all add to its beauty
