Random Fridays: The pond at twilight

Lily pond and overhanging trees caught in the last rays of sun.

Isn’t this a peaceful scene? Not a ripple to disturb the water lilies on this pond. Can you feel the day fading?

Watery reflections in black and white

Cee’s Black & White Challenge this week is Reflections and Shadows. I have a trio of watery reflections to offer, all taken recently at The Bryon at Byron Bay, a resort set on 45 acres of rainforest and lily ponds about 750km north of Sydney.

 

The water in the pond is so still, this looks like a mirror image.

The lines of the dead tree provide a solid reference point among the quavering reflections of trees.

The busy grooming activity of this little duck cast concentric ripples onto the still reflection of the trees.
