Have a seat. by maggie2

Have a seat.

I tried to talk my sister into sitting on the chair. The picture would have been so much better, but she was concerned with hypothermia because there is still ice on the water. What does that have to do with a good picture? :-)

I thought of cherylgreen@greenpots who always finds furniture in interesting places when I took this shot.
:) Cool catch

I love it! I can't believe you asked your sister to sit there! (It would have made an awesome pic though...still, this alone is great.) I have a photo with the same title: http://365project.org/ellen/365-year-2/2011-06-25 ...just looked back at it and realized you kinda have to look for the chair in it - it blends in, but it's there!
March 14th, 2012  
This is so weird but so funny! You could still edit your sister into the picture ;).
March 14th, 2012  
@jannaellen What a great idea. :-)
March 14th, 2012  
This is an amazing photo!
March 14th, 2012  
LOL, this is so unique. How is the seat secured?
March 14th, 2012  
I could see somebody in waders with a fishing rod sitting in that chair. Cool find!
March 14th, 2012  
This is neat
March 14th, 2012  
Totally agree with Robert V
March 14th, 2012  
lol - sure would make a marvelous vantage point - if you had the nerve!
March 14th, 2012  
@sailingmusic Myrna, it must have been washed downstream and got stuck on the falls. I don't believe anyone put it there.
March 14th, 2012  
She didn't suggest you sit there while she takes the picture? That is scary whether the water is cold or hot. Great capture.
March 14th, 2012  
Brr I don't blame her not wanting to sit there lol
March 14th, 2012  
Very creative! at first I didn't see the chair. Great shot Margaret :D
March 14th, 2012  
Great capture, Margaret! How did this happen? I love the mystery behind this . . captures the mind.
March 14th, 2012  
How uncooperative of your sister! What random and pleasant find:)
March 14th, 2012  
@karenann This must have washed down stream and landed on the falls.
March 14th, 2012  
@vernabeth Beth, this is where I swam for years when I was a kid. We would sit on the falls and slide down. The water is always cold there.
March 14th, 2012  
UH OH!
March 14th, 2012  
Sisters? Useless!!! Some poor soul is missing that nice chair - maybe a bear will find it!
March 14th, 2012  
Cool find. I'm with your sister, not going in that cold water. And yes you got to wonder how that chair got there.
March 14th, 2012  
What the Heck! So cool great shot!
March 14th, 2012  
Wow, I'm honored. That would be a great chair to paint...excellent photograph!
March 14th, 2012  
Lol! Your sister doesn't understand a good photo... ;-) But I still love this, it makes me laugh!
March 14th, 2012  
Amazing Shot! Love this - can't believe the chair hung up there! Fabulous!
March 14th, 2012  
wow! great and creative shot! I don't understand your sister! lol I would of said in her place... you go and sit... I'll take the shot! lol
March 14th, 2012  
I just don't understand why she refused!! She's not a photographer, obviously :-0D

Well spotted! Now I'm wondering how and why this chair arrived here!
March 14th, 2012  
haha! i would have sat on it for ya! i think that would have been a hillarious shot!!!
March 14th, 2012  
Bizarre! But what a cool photo it made.
March 14th, 2012  
Ha! That is so cool!
March 14th, 2012  
Ha! Sisters! Mine never does what I tell her either! ;-)
March 14th, 2012  
this is awesome!!! I think it almost looks better without anyone sitting in it :)
March 14th, 2012  
Now that's what I'd call an impressive wet room! Great spot.
March 14th, 2012  
First Cork, now Heather? You do NOT have a cooperative bunch there do you? Love this shot! Did you send it to Kevin? Fav(the dam never looked better)
March 14th, 2012  
Can't say I blame her TBH!
March 14th, 2012  
haha!! what a find!! and it's sitting there so perfect, just waiting for your sister;) fav for me!
March 14th, 2012  
What a find! That is great! How is it just sitting there, like it is waiting for someone to sit down! Love it.
March 14th, 2012  
Very unreasonable of your sister I'd say;0) Crackin shot all the same
March 14th, 2012  
awesome Margaret, I like the water party most
March 14th, 2012  
LOL! Great find, it's amazing that it's stuck in just the right place & staying there!!!
March 14th, 2012  
No thought for your 365er friend who would have been sooooo impressed if she had sat on it....if only or a moment!!!!! fabulous job!!
March 14th, 2012  
What an awesome photo! :)
March 14th, 2012

March 14th, 2012  
This is crazy!! Nice find!!
March 14th, 2012

March 14th, 2012  
Wierd!
March 14th, 2012  
That's hilarious!!
March 14th, 2012  
haha what a strange place to find a chair, awesome pic tho.
March 14th, 2012  
Don't blame her for not sitting there! What a great find!
March 14th, 2012  
I would not sit there either. That can't be there on purpose. I thought I was just here tuesday and don't remember seeing that there. Lol
March 14th, 2012  
Ha, nice find! :)
March 14th, 2012  
Wow, great capture. The chair is kind of scary looking. I wonder how it got there. Good thing you didn't talk your sister into sitting in it. :)
March 15th, 2012  
Fantastic :)
March 15th, 2012  
Some people worry about the silliest things, LOL
March 15th, 2012  
@wjw1741 Warren, I took this shot Wednesday afternoon. It was hung up on the falls, and must have washed down from somewhere. If it were a little warmer...I would have sat there myself for the shot. :-)
March 15th, 2012  
Fancy your sister not cooperating! Poor sport, I call it. Nicely captured, though, Margaret.
March 15th, 2012  
Yep it certainly would have taken this great shot to the next level if someone was actually sitting in the chair.
March 15th, 2012  
So funny, can't believe your sister wouldn't co-operate!!!
March 15th, 2012  
*LOL* It's still a fantastic shot though! 8D
March 15th, 2012  
Looks like an interesting place to leave a chair! Fun shot!
March 15th, 2012  
Ruh roh... Fabulous capture!
March 15th, 2012  
I want to sit there. Great find
March 15th, 2012  
Great find! Did you see it go over?
March 15th, 2012  
@poophappens David, it didn't go over. It's still there. I'm hoping it stays there long enough for me to get a shot with me sitting there. Yes...I'm that crazy. :-)
March 15th, 2012  
ha ha -what's a little hypothermia between sisters? I hear there is a little restaurant in Big Sur that has their tables and chairs in the river. I will wait to see you sitting pretty in that chair!
March 15th, 2012  
ha.... too funny, she has no sport about her?!!! the water does look cold!! great find~
March 15th, 2012  
funny situation!
March 15th, 2012  
HAHAHA, this is awesome!! great capture. too funny
March 15th, 2012  
What a big sook.....that would've been great....and a brilliant spot to have a chair:)
March 16th, 2012

March 18th, 2012  
What an epic find! LOVE it!!

Awesome find. Hasn't your sister ever heard of sacrificing for your art? (Or doesn't that apply to one's sister's art?)
