Yay - taxes are now with accountant. Celebrated by stopping at Botanic Garden on my way back home. The sun even came out while I was there (on an otherwise dreary day). I loved the pattern this little duck was making in the large pond in the Japanese Garden. Wishing all a photo-filled weekend!
@jyokota It was really very still -- this was the only pattern with the duck creating a perfect 'v' and the rest of the lake like glass. Strange, I thought.
It looks like he is jet propelled! Lovely image! Thankfully since retirement as long as my circumstances don't change I no longer have to do a tax return! Such a relief as it was one of those jobs I hated! Fav for your beautiful Image!
That is some wake for a serene little duck - I guess the old adage about serene above the water whilst paddling like blazes below may well be true. Nice one Taffy.
I love this Taffy, what an eye and what a capture. This is awesome. And congrats on taxes turned in - it's one of my biggest stressors any given year and I feel good once it's all sorted out!
@gamelee Haha! I don't know PS well enough to use layers and create this. What caught my eye was the wake, and then I did a double-take when I saw the tiny duck at the vortex. I took about 15 photos of it as it went across the lake and between two huge rocks. I ended up liking this one since it was so open with the lake. Thanks for the visit!
