Natalie van Aken, The Pinnacles (October theme: Light and Dark)

I first visited here 4 years ago with my grandmother and loved it, so I had to return. The Pinnacles National Park has a 4km loop with hundreds of rock formations. My 1 year old son played peekaboo with me between the rocks, then ran over for a hug and tried to mimic my pose as I captured this shot lying on the ground.
