This image was taken at Taughannock Falls, facing toward the waterfall.
Route yourself to the Taughannock Falls Overlook Visitors Center and park. You’ll find the staircase on your right. Follow the signage for the Taughannock Falls Gorge Trail. Take this trail all the way to the end until you meet the mouth of the waterfall. I stood in the water to get this shot.

Taughannock Falls Overlook Visitors Center, Taughannock Park Rd, Trumansburg, NY 14886
