better left unsaid

These falls are one of my favourite places to visit with my cam­era. The hike is pleas­ant, and when­ever I’ve been I haven’t seen any­one else. It’s a bit of a drive from the city but it’s worth it. I always seem to get a good group of decent shots when­ever I make the trip. The falls them­selves are quite nice, but the most inter­est­ing part for me is where the pool starts to turn into the river, where all the wood and rocks that have been tossed over the falls com­bine to make an almost end­less source of angles, cas­cades and shadows.
