#2149 "Grande Chute Whitewater"

I moved down to the ledges on the east bank of the Grande Chute. I was actually getting tired of standing so I sat on the rock as close to the edge as I dared. A tumble into the torrent would be the last mistake anyone could make.
The roar of the cataract was deafening and I hoped that the sound would permeate the canvas. Plus it felt really good to just sit down for a while. I wanted to capture the energy of the cataract with equally energetic brush strokes even though I was sitting down on the job.
