Oh wow, how cool!!! A beautiful pond and such neat surroundings! Maybe they should put up a fence so preditors don't get it...hehe...Superb capture Carol!
Carol - With the plantings around the pond, your neighbor's yard must be quite impressive! The composition is very good, capturing the pond without zooming out so far as to lose clarity of details. I wonder if tweaking the contrast might help tone down at bit the bright sunlight. Thad
Is this a catch and release pond? A nicely composed scene, Carol. Lovely colours in the blooms and fish. I like Thad's suggestion of toning down the light.
Wow that is some pond and love the colours and light in this shot too.How much to fish there for the day.Love all the foliage round the pond as well.Well done to a lovely photography.
Some people have Gurus, I have my camera. Through the cam lenses I have learnt to deeply perceive life, not only to see, but to look at all expressions of nature, becoming able to read the poetry of the flowers, receiving the embrace of the trees and flying above the clouds without wings! - Susie Sun
