Murder Creek, NY

[Abinoone]

There's a small county park just north of Buffalo, where Murder Creek flows over Akron Falls. Most visitors go to the falls (which are very beautiful), but I like to position myself downstream, especially in the fall. Murder Creek supposedly gets its name from the murder of a young Seneca Indian woman that occurred here a couple of hundred years ago. This location is one of the many glories of upstate New York!

That's another lovely shot, Clark. Nicely composed with the water flowing diagonally across the frame. And I like all of the colorful leaves on the rocks.

Wonderful shot and place.
And thanks for the story, a name like that makes you wonder what happened.

Very pretty and very yellow -- we didn't have much in the way of red this year, mostly yellow. Interesting tale, there's a stream near here called Young Womans Creek where the body of a young woman was apparenly found many, many years ago.

Great composition and capture of the movement of the water.
