Despite my best efforts, I found myself having to work all last evening and so was not able to catch up with you all. The delight still awaits me, but I am suffering from eye strain so will need to take a screen break for a while.
I am posting a couple more from last weekend. I sent a few to my Dad - he enjoys seeing my photos and it gives me great pleasure to know that since he has always been a harsh critic . Dad chose two from those that I sent that he said 'told the story'. Here is the first.
When taking this, a couple of children appeared in their trainers running around in the water. I envisaged having to rescue them from the lake as it was very difficult (unless you knew - which I did) to ascertain where the lake ended and the overflow started and I feared they would run into the lake by mistake.
I approached them and very politely explained just how dangerous it was - and thankfully they left after that.
Wow- the water looks so powerful (glad the children listened!). I am assuming you have taken this from some sort of bridge because the water looks too powerful for you to be standing in it. Great shot!
I'm glad you warned the children of the danger! And I agree with your Dad that this image certainly tells a story. What an amazing thing it is to witness nature's power in this way. Take good care of yourself during your busy stretch, and I hope things settle down for you soon.
