    Thank you. It is one of my favorites. It is from a series of photos I was paid to take for our college chapel for a brochure on “quiet spaces” on campus.

    And thank you for commenting, because I don’t get inspired to post again until I’ve gotten a comment. Maybe I’ll get over it soon.

    Like a polished slab of black marble. The weeds and algae add a nice touch of early Spring chlorophyll.

    Citadin, it does speak of coolness and spring, doesn’t it? This and some other photos will be used in a brochure for the college chapel.

    Well it’s nice to be able to go rowing after church, a bit of the playground experience after class. Is that the same pond in the lovely sunset picture below?

    Citadin, no the photo below is not mine. Just a googled picture of “reflection”. The only pictures that are mine are the ones I post without text or just a title with the year.

    I used to row at sunrise with the Crew team. It was lovely.
