While taking a relaxing dip in the river running through the smokies, I saw this cascade. I looked at it and pictured an interesting shot. So, I got out my tripod and camera and set up a nice composition. Then my dad swam into the frame! He swam up to one of the rocks and rested on it. I asked him to stay there once I realized that a human element might be a nice touch.
