Storm Over Great Falls
Dark storm clouds gather above the rugged landscape of Great Falls in Virginia as the Potomac River surges through a maze of ancient rock formations. Whitewater cascades between jagged cliffs while dense green forest frames the turbulent river, creating a dramatic contrast between water, stone, and sky. Captured on an overcast September afternoon, the scene showcases the raw power and rugged beauty of one of the Potomac River’s most striking landscapes. #EngelPhotography #GreatFalls #GreatFallsPark #Virginia #PotomacRiver #Waterfall #Rapids #LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography #VirginiaPhotography #StormClouds #RiverPhotography #ScenicLandscape
