Cascade

This afternoon I took a trip out to Virginia Water, hoping to see the cascade in full spate.  After a bright, sunny morning I should have known that the whole of Surrey seemed to have the same idea - and finding a space in the car park was a challenge!  Once parked, it was then the case of walking along the edge of the lake to the cascade avoiding all those people of a certain age with their New Year's resolution to get in shape  by walking or jogging; the youngsters excitedly trying out their Christmas scooters and bicycles; the dog walkers complete with dogs of varying sizes and so on.

By now heavy clouds had made their appearance, and it a bitter wind was blowing, but the cascades met my every expectation, and I soon forgot the cold as I concentrated on getting some shots. 

I was rather taken by the sight of a young woman was looking pensively over the falls.  After a while she was joined by her partner - a young man with DSLR in hand, who had no doubt lost track of the time, and had forgotten his companion waiting patiently for him.
