Wonderful colors and tones. Aren't they funny. Wanting to stay dry and the next minute plopping in.

Lovely shot! Those ripples and reflections on the water are beautiful.

Nice small island for these playful Geese!

the angles of the branches and dappled reflections give this shot an Asian flair ~
