Sauble Falls/ Watery Wednesday

 Sauble Falls near Sauble Beach, Ontario

On a partly cloudy day earlier in November, my husband and I took a day trip to the shores of Lake Huron. We had heard about this falls and wanted to see it for ourselves. We've had plenty of rain this month so the water was rushing over the the many rocks in the river.

This photo was taken from the southerly side of the river.

 Two fishers just below the falls

We also walked the trail on the north side of the falls to get a different view. I don't know if these guys caught any fish. The weather was fairly warm so they may have been content to be out enjoying some quality time with Mother Nature.

I am linking to Watery Wednesday where you can find many more watery photos.

The view is very pretty.

The falls are pretty, so wide and evenly spaced. I'll bet they sound great as the water rushes along.

I got a little chill just looking at that guy in the water. Must be exciting though. :) And the falls are really pretty.

I am glad you posted this - every time I go to Sauble, I meant to check out the falls but something else always distracted me, so I never really knew what they looked like. And I am so very impressed that you took a day trip to the shores of Lake Huron!!

Great pictures. That must be a great fishinfg spot, because that looks a bit dangerous to be way out there is the current.

RedPat said...

I think I can hear the water! What a nice shot. I wonder what kind of fish are caught in those waters? Cold water fish, probably! ;-)

Thiss is definitely my kind of waterfall where a fisherman can stand in the water and be safe. What a beautiful capture and a heavenly spot. A Wonderful photo. genie

I like the way you chose to shoot from two different perspectives. Above to get the roiling water over the rocks. Below, the peaceful lake. Each had a different feeling. Hope it was a good day out with Mother Nature for you and your husband.

You took nice shots of the different perspective of the lake. A lot of rain could bring beautiful spring flowers.

I am facebooking with my old friends from Windsor uni.

You will be happy to read this:

That trip gave me an ever lasting good impression of the Canadians. I was getting car sick, Martin stopped the car, and I vomitted on the road. One of the girls went to the door for some water. The lady of the house came and gave me a glass of orange juice. How about that?
