Nope.... Not Wateree this time. This one is Sesquicentiennial State Park. I used to take my boys there pretty frequently before we moved. It was one of my favorite places to go for some peace and quiet. First time I'd ever seen a state park almost in the downtown of a large city. It's a nice place.

Hi Shelly,

Great angle of light .. love the stillness .. the beautiful reflection really communicates that very well .. the single duck is great .. there is some weirdness of tone (from raising the shadows?) in the bottom right corner .. wonderful mood ..

take care,

John

Hi Shelly. Nice to have a quiet retreat from the rat race. I've got one near my home, a bit like this with lots of waterfowl. i plan to post a picture soon. I do like the stillness in this shot and the refreshing blue. The light too is pleasant.Regards. Klaudio.

Hi Shelly,
The vivid blue sky seen making a striking reflection in the clam lake makes a beautiful contrast to the evergreen forrest seen reflecting on the other side of the lake. The goose swimming across the lake adds nice definition and soothing peace to this fine image. It will be a month and a half before we see a scene like this up here but on the other hand the summers down there would be oppressive for a mountain man like me.
Regards, Tom

Hi Shelly,
A nice one with beautiful colors and a nice reflection in the water.
Regards
John

Bonsoir Shelly,
Encore une très belle composition pour nous permettre d'amirer cet endroit tout à fait idyllique.
La lumière qui nous donne de si belles couleurs et de magnifiques reflets est très bien gérée.
Amicalement

Hi, Shelly -

You should check out San Francisco; we have a national park (Presidio) in the middle of our city!

Nice quiet mood shot, and the swan makes it even better. Nice color and light management.

Regards,
Dan

Hello Shelly

A beautiful landscape, I have been in vigor and life. Great lighting, good brightness, pretty reflexes, excellent contrast and a wonderful dynamic composition, to capture the duck swims into the scene. Okay
