The rise of the waterfalls

Sept1. The dreaded day had arrived. I got up early and got ready as well. No call from Jeff. So I called him...he was already on the way!
I wasted precious time walking around trying to flag a cab...since it was too late when I got one, I directed him to take me to Tai Po Market. Cost me a bit...but so embarrassing to arrive late! I was late by 10 mins..We gathered in front of the ticket office to check for supplies...the forecast was 32deg in 90+% relative humidity...there was enough water for the trip. I grabbed a Tuna Bun and popped down my panadol tabs. The sore throat had left me exhausted and I need strength to do my first proper hike in months!
We got off the bus at the base of the stream. Gary was quite late but allowed himself to be persuaded to join us later. The walk up the temple was quite easy...only when we climbed a bit further did we realize that it was not an easy one...
We encountered 4 major waterfalls - the bottom fall, the middle fall, the main fall and the scattered fall...Julian struggled with his bad knee (but rewarded himself with a massage on the same day and another one on the following day in Shenzhen!!).
Some of the shots were ok...but I did miss my tripod so much..I was too tired and hot to hold the camera steady and almost all my HDR shots and slow shutter speed shots were ruined...
Some of us decided to leave early rather than carry on to the peak...we missed a great view from the peak...but hey I had to get home before dark...that's when the evil spirits are out and about in this Chinese month...wooo woooo...no...that's just me practising my werewolf call...Hope you enjoy this set.
