I thought I would share with you the scene at the public landing at Grassy Creek. The swans hang out at the spot many times throughout the day, and this is where I met the lovely couple from New Zealand. They were parked up on the hill, in the shade.This is just a few miles from my home, and I go by this spot a lot.

I'm using the canon 40D all the time these days, and love it. I gave this a touch of topaz adjust 5.

I hope your enjoyed the visit to Grassy Creek, and thank you for commenting.

I am far more impressed by the scene and the reflections than the swans Sandi. A lovely scene very well captured.

Think another title would have been more appropriate, Sandi, as the swans play only a minor role is this anyhow wonderful image.
I like the clear and splendid reflections.

Very good image!

Regards, Cornelius.

That is a beautiful reflection Sandi. The colours are so vibrant and clear throughtout - a really delightful scene.
I have always liked that form of bordering and it suits this image very well.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
