Today the main reservoir for Paimpont, the 'Blue Pond' was formerly an open-cast iron mine which closed during the 1st World War and gradually filled naturally with water of a high quality. The lake has a surface area in excess of a hectare and is over 50 metres deep. As I took this image, I was being watched by two wild boar which took off as soon as I moved and were rapidly lost to view in the dense undergrowth.
That is a deep pond but then quarry ponds often are. Imagine seeing wild boar - as soon as you moved your camera they would have noticed it! Lovely misty photo, well shot!
@maggiemae Thank you Maggiemae - whilst the view over the lake is clear, it was dusk so the forest behind me was far too dark to shoot two fast moving dark coated animals... and you don't want to antagonize a 90 kilo wild beast with tusks!
I'm glad the pigs went the other way; dangerous creatures. I like that one can't tell if this is a picture of branches or if it's a picture of a misty expanse of water. Like one of those foreground/background illusions.
