Gently down the stream

Needed a shot for 'travel' and was aware that Sunday's challenge word is 'reflections' so I claim 2 label-4-april points for this one. Most of all, though, I loved the way the ripples cut through the smooth water. (It's actually a river but it was a lovely gentle scene)
Bless you for stopping by to see my rather intense sheep yesterday - you're all smashing mwah!

Great double. Well captured. I agree with you about the ripples. They shoe the rowers path through the water

Beautiful place and great shot. I have actually paddled a kayak (it was a two-seater and I was with an experienced kayaker) and it is a wonderful experience.

I love this, first because of the terrific composition and catch of the lovely trail, second because it's my favorite thing to do.

Where is that, it looks beautiful

[Phil]

@bulldog It's the River Great Ouse as it wends through Bedford Town Centre would you believe! A few hundred yards either side is busy concrete. A little oasis of calm :)

[Bev]

Great shot! Love the color and reflections and I like the ripples the paddler leaves in his wake. Very well done, Phil! :)
