Unexpected
That urge to see whats around the corner led to this unexpected scene and several minutes of just staring to take it all in. When I finally raised my camera, the woman in the center right walked a bit closer, waved her arms, and shouted something. I couldn't hear over the roar of the water, waved, and followed the trail around to the top of that waterfall. When I got closer, she walked over again and I expected some objection about including them in my frame. Instead, she proceeded to ask if I wanted them out of the way so I could compose a shot without people. I was pleasantly surprised but her family was having so much fun up there, I did not want to intrude. Having people in the image does give a sense of perspective and we wound up spending a fair bit of time chatting about other places to visit - all of which, was much appreciated.
