A stationary camera looks up the Passaic River to the Great Falls, in the city of Paterson, New Jersey. The falls are split by a promontory rock, so it appears as twin falls. A railroad bridge spans the river just down from the falls, giving a top frame to our view. One piece of flotsam moves slowly toward us in the center of the river.
