Late Fall at Eternal Flame - Panorama, Chestnut Ridge Park, Orchard Park, NY

Late Fall at Eternal Flame - Panorama

If you want to order this print, please, contact me as this panoramic format does not fit the standard online formats. I will be happy to help!

The Eternal Flame Falls ravine in the fall, head on, and from a distance showing almost the whole width of the ravine and the creek. This is the view one gets to see upon arrival along the creek.

I liked the signs of fall in and along the creek, with the red and yellow leaves nicely lining the waterfall.

The Eternal Flame Waterfall in the Chestnut Ridge Park, Orchard Park, NY, is a proof that frequently one does not have to search far to find wonders of nature. Here, the elements are in a constant clash! Who'd expect a flame constantly burning in the middle of a waterfall?

Thanks to a constantly escaping natural gas the flame keeps on burning. Only on one occasion did I find the flame extinguished. A lighter can easily fix that (matches are tougher since you need to get them through the waterfall first).

This wonderful place went from barely known about 15 years ago to rather crowded these days, including a new parking lot at a new alternate trail head. I hope it stays as great as it still is for years to come! Visitors, please, take your trash back with you!
