Still Water at the Dock


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest Finalist   Still Water at the Dock
Still Water at the Dock

This photo, and the previous one, offer a tale of two mornings. The first from a bright, partly cloudy morning, and the second from one dark and stormy. Still water in the first, churning white-water in the second. A peaceful quietness in the first, a wild roar in the second. These contrasts are what make life and photography so interesting, are they not?

Quote of the Day: “So you enjoy living in the light, with happiness and stillness. You will only truly appreciate it after you’ve been in the dark. Then you will have true joy and serenity.” ~Author Unknown

I have often remarked that most miserable people are really HAPPY, but don't know it because they've never known REAL misery. A corollary to your quote, perhaps. Beautiful photo, Randall.
