Mysterious and colourful seem to be an almost impossible combination, but you've succeeded in doing this Thad. My compliments for this post.

Talk about a peaceful and beautiful photo! I can almost hear the soft water sounds and feel and smell the air there. I know it is clean and lovely. The colours here are gorgeous too. Thad, you sure bring us the beauty of your little part of the world. I love it very much. Verena
