Taken on a holiday to Derbyshire, this is the cascade at Chatsworth House Taken with my Nikon FG with my series 1 Vivitar 28/90 mm lens

The Cascade and Cascade House: The Cascade is a set of stone steps over which water flows from a set of fountains at the top. It was built in 1696 and rebuilt on a grander scale in 1701. In 1703 a grand baroque Temple or Cascade House designed by Thomas Archer was added at the top. A major restoration of both the Cascade and the Cascade House was carried out in 1994–1996; it took 10,000 man-hours of work. In 2004 the Cascade was voted the best water feature in England by a panel of 45 garden experts organised by Country Life.[4]

Hello Kenny,
you have captured the essence of the cascade by showing all the people paddling in its water.
We once saw a man have a nasty fall on these steps,they are so slippery.
The shot could be a little sharper imo,but I like your POV.
Regards Jean.

A good perspective Kenny, with a human scene both in fg and bg, cheers :) Daniel
