Jacko Falls

in #photofeed6 years ago

A shot I took from the back of the cave at Jacko Falls in Dominica. I had the pleasure of being shown the falls by the eminent local photographer Yuri Jones who has some amazing photos around the island. Yuri also studies the history of these sites and Jacko falls is named after a local maroon chief, Jacko who was a former slave who escaped bondage and lived in the wild and untamed jungles of Dominica's interior during the late 18th century. Maroons fought for freedom from slavery and caused trouble for the plantation owners/managers over the course of several decades.

Where do we think steem is going? Getting ready to bust back though to 50 cents of head back down to 10? Love to hear your thoughts.
