Patricia: LOL! It can be the same at Otter Cliffs in Acadia. I got there very early one morning and was thinking to myself how nice it was with only a few other photogs around. Then a huge bus pulled up and there were hoards coming with flashlights shining everywhere on the rocks. I kept them out of my shots or cloned them! LOL! Probably should have captured a few lines of them! #10512967
