The assignment from the WPC today is to “share your vision of our glorious Mother Earth”. This picture was taken with my very first digital camera, a little Canon point and shoot, so the image quality is a bit lacking.
But it does help demonstrate why I think Washington State is such a gloriously beautiful example of the natural splendor of our Mother Earth.

I can feel that cold water on my feet. 🙂 So peaceful, although I’m sure it isn’t always.

Photos of rivers are especially appealing to me in hot weather for the reason you said. You can almost feel yourself in the cold water. Well, not all rivers I guess. Mountain runoff rivers like we have here. Murky rivers like they have in the South look creepy to me. Heh.

You should! You can participate any time during the week.
I finally subscribed so I get an email with the topic, because I always forgot to check also. That means I get an email every day with writing prompts, but I just delete them unread since this isn’t that kind of blog. The photo prompt is usually the second email sent on Fridays, the first one being a writing topic.

Thanks, I just added my current post to the challenge since it pretty much sums up how I view the earth anyway 🙂

This is a lovely photo! You framed it perfectly and it really captures the color of the river and the Cascades. I can almost hear the water rushing by!

It’s a great spot for taking photos. There’s no sign from looking at this that a tiny town is immediately to your left.
