Just scanned a number of old chromes. This one is Vidae Falls, Crater Lake National Park.4x5, probably 90mm, Velvia. Sorry it is so large - I'll try for smaller next time!
It's hard to tell but there was water still falling when I took that shot a couple days ago:

Tiffany Falls, Hamilton, Ontario. Intrepid Black, Osaka Wide Field 120mm.
The iconic Minnehaha Falls in NE Georgia. I took an 8x10 image here years ago, but have been meaning to shoot 4x5 so as to make larger prints. Very happy how the water flow turned out here. Shot with my Intrepid 4x5 mk4 and Nikkor 90mm f/8 on T-Max 100, a 2-second exposure and semi-stand developed in Pyrocat 1:1:100 for 22 minutes using the remaining solution after developing 4 rolls of 120. I used a very low tripod location to get the two large rocks on the left of the frame to line up in a V-shape without overlapping, and allowing the whitewater flowing into the corner to accentuate the foreground flow and turbulence.
Cattail Falls, Big Bend NP, October 2016

I hard that Cattail Falls was "falling" so I scheduled some time off and drove 10 hours to BBNP to photograph the falls. It's . I scanned this on my Epson Expresssion 10000XL. It's been long enough that I don't remember what I did with it after the scan. It was cropped, I can see that. Thankfully I documented the camera, lens, and settings. I started shooting film again and I haven't done very well with documenting the shot. The trail to Cattail Falls is 2.6 miles. The walk from the parking lot to the trailhead (gravel road) is easy then there's about 750 of elevation gain via switchbacks. If you go too late in the morning you'll be able to "enjoy" the hike (aka death march) in bright, warm, sunshine. On the upside, it's rare that you encounter anyone.
To be honest, I think the scene deserved better than I gave it.
Here's shot of the setup.
