I had thought of doing something studio for this portion of the contest but as the title of this thread states I enjoy natural places. These falls are a new discovery for me and they are just a short drive down the highway so we may visit them in the summer when we want to cool off. This day though I was going with my son to find some locations specifically for this contest. The father and daughter in the photo showed up after my son and I had set up for our first shots and at first I was bothered by the thought of waiting for them to leave so I could have the scene to myself. One look through the lens told me that they were not cluttering the scene, they were making it. I talked to the dad after and he apologized for being in the frame and when I told him that I actually preferred to have them in it he voluntarily went and sat down again for a few more. It was a very cool hour or so at Flood Falls near Hope, B.C., Canada.
