North Branch Susquehanna River · Falls, Pennsylvania
Autumn at Falls
Along the Susquehanna
Photographs by John Alexiou
Follow the blue curve of the Susquehanna past a hillside of rust and gold. Look a little closer and the scene changes: gray rock shows through the trees, two stone arches frame a narrow channel, and a line of ducks crosses the clear water.
Falls Township grew around mills powered by the local falls and once had a passenger train station. The stone arches and the bridge bring that sense of a working river into a landscape still shaped by changing light and seasons. On a wall, these views can bring back a familiar stretch of water or give you somewhere quiet to let your eyes wander.
Six aerial photographs taken in and around Falls, Pennsylvania, on November 1, 2026, with a DJI Mavic 4 Pro.
