Running Eagle Falls, Montana

Right below the little wooden platform aren't ya

Nice, I bet they've slowed down by now.

Very nice, Mike. It's a favorite of mine, especially when the flow is enough for both top and bottom falls.

nice pictures - where are these falls - I spend a month in Ennis in the summer - would love to see them

Marcy, this waterfall is in the Two Medicine Valley of Glacier NP. It's about 300 miles from Ennis, but you really should visit GNP. There are two FHU RV parks at St Mary, and NPS campgrounds at Two Medicine and St Mary (limited or no hook-ups).

thanks Stan - I remember this now - I don't think we made it to that falls last summer - we did get some other shots in that area though

looks like a fantastic location but the the water fall is to far to the right. if you turn your camera a little to the right which will position the FG rock to the bottom left and the falls in the top right intersection of the rule of thirds...JMHO

Eventually you learn to get away from the rule of thirds and create more interesting shots. The waterfall is not meant to be the emphasis here.

It's such a pretty waterfall that it's like the elephant in the room. You can try not to emphasize it, but if it's in the frame it emphasizes itself! Nice composition though.

Running Eagle was a spectacularly awesome gusher when we visited it in early July last year. I love that this waterfall carries a completely different, but equally aesthetic appearance (imo) depending on the water flow.
