Wowwww. Hayward another masterclass in how to compose a photograph in the first one. This is a gorgeous capture. you have got to love the reflection. The reedbeds create a lovely colour on the water in the second and I like the way that you capture the gentle breeze just giving enough movement to the reeds in the last one. Outstanding work Hayward.

Woo Hoo for 80 degree weather !! Gotta love it. Great shots the first one especially looks so calm and inviting. What a nice place to have near you to go walking in. I really like the way you framed those too!
