Flowing around the bend to the gorge.
 Linville Falls. beginning in a twin set of upper falls, moving down a small gorge, and culminating in a high-volume 45-foot drop.
A must see.
It had been raining steadily for days near Linville Falls.  Parts of the Blue Ridge Parkway were inaccessible, but the rains made for a spectacular view of the falls after a relatively short hike.  This photo taken at 36mm, F/16.0, 6 sec. @ ISO 100.
