For me the cute little duckling is a bonus - what interests me is the play of light in the water:

I can almost see the water moving. It's mesmerizing. Cool.
What's in the background but not seen that's making the two dark bars on the reflection?

Thanks Mel, those bars are shadows of a couple of pines on the opposing bank of this little pond.

90 degrees to the right:

Wow this one's giving me that getting-dizzy-from-staring-at-the-water-too-long feeling too. I find I'm starting to sway a bit with the ripples.

Nice shot of the cute little goslings. We have a bunch of those here too. I think ours are a little further along though. The ones I saw the other day trying to cross the road were a tad larger. It looks like a beautiful area.

Yes this is my favourite area to walk my dog, just s few miles from where I live. Bringing the dog was not a good idea for this mother though
