Well done! Really like how you captured the sky & clouds in the reflection of the dark blue water. Thanks for sharing this great photo.

You've got a nice find, the colors that come from the grass are a pleasing addition. Then the water is perfect, and the clouds are wonderful and give there great little reflection onto the water.

I'm 18 and don't travel much. But I tend to bring my camera around just to catch what sticks out from my everyday goings. (pardon me if I speak my mind) *~* Gallery *~*

Darryl, your expertise shines through in this capture. Wonderfully clear and well composed with vivid colours. The reflections on that clear pond are beautiful, as are the lovely yellow, rust and brown coloured grasses. I like viewing your Canadian images - many thanks! :*))

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

The thing that goes the farthest, towards making life worthwhile, it costs the least and does the most, is just a pleasant smile.

I like the way this takes over control of the eye and send it scampering into the depths of the image. Nice work.

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.

This is a simple view, but it is chocked full of eye candy for the viewer. I first noticed the clarity of the overall image, then my eye was drawn to the sapphire water. I was especially captivated by the reflections of the clouds as you captured them in the corner of the water. Very classy image Darryl and one I am proud to add to my favorites! Thanks for sharing this with me ;=)
