ABC Wednesday—W is for "waterfall"

This is Shackleton Falls, on South Georgia.
It's named for Sir Ernest Shackleton,
the Antarctic explorer.  He came
over this mountain to the whaling station
of Strömness and was able to rescue
his entire crew after they had to abandon
their ship when it was trapped in (and
ultimately destroyed by) pack ice.

abc wednesday —W is for "waterfall"

This is a little pocket park near where I work. 
You can pull up a chair and enjoy this 
waterfall while you eat your lunch.  But you're 
not supposed to do what I did (surreptitiously, 
with my cell phone): There's a sign placed very
prominently at the entrance that says
"Photography strictly forbidden."  Really?
