It's funny, Rona. This week I've spent countless hours looking for my own examples to illustrate "rules" for shooting landscapes. Now everytime I see a photo, I see a rule or two. This is a GREAT example of the rule of verticals.

It's also wonderful. #1398330

Beautiful reflection Rona and great find when it is so difficult to find anything to shoot right now. I went the other day too and found nothing because this heat has everything in hiding doesn't it? #9581029

That's what make you a good photographer, Rona! Finding and "seeing" an image after your waterfowl were not there! Just a beautiful reflections shot! #9582261

Absolutely gorgeous colors and reflections, Rona!!! You never know about the birds. Saw 2 Sandhill Cranes in a field. Went back a little later and cold not relocate them! Looks soooo pretty, Rona!! #9586728
