Rivulet Between Two Ponds

Uploaded: January 31, 2006

Description

f/3.5, 1/50s, late afternoon in October at the Dodge Poetry Festival in NJ. Taken with the camera that recently got run over by a snowplow and crushed. Keith has it all apart and is going to try to fix it. I'm exploring other seasons, LOL, as this one is rather dismal.

I think I may enter it under transformations, because of the transformations wrought by the seasons! LOL! Oops, we're in a new month, but the new theme isn't posted. Dang!

Beautiful image, Mary.
To see the new theme before the month begins, underneath the monthly theme...click on the words "learn more about themes" the following months theme can always be found there. #2364543

Mary N C. Taitt February 01, 2006

Thank you Shelly, Carla, Kate and Joy for your kind words and thoughts! Mary :-)

And thank you Carla for the info--I did go to the contest, but it still had the old theme posted, even though the new dates were up. I will try that! Mary :-) #2364914

Kate Jackson February 01, 2006

Ooohhh "Purple, Pink or White". With the way your mind works Mary we will probably see anything but purple pink or white!! How about a nice black? I am sure you can think of a way to interpret that as purple pink or white! I have to put LOL in as sometimes my remarks are taken seriously LOL!! #2364929

Kate Jackson February 01, 2006

Not by you LOL! #2364930

Goshka G. February 01, 2006

Lovely scenery to see at this time of year when it's so grey outside, Mary! #2364951

Mary N C. Taitt February 01, 2006

Thanks, Goshka. Because of events and situations beyond my control, I haven't been able to get out lately. And it's pretty dismal here anyway. So I've been enjoying looking at some of the photos I've taken earlier. I do love seeing the warmer more invitiing weather! LOL!

Speaking of LOL, Kate, relax, I'm not that easily offended. You're right, I probably could find a way to interpret black as pink, purple or white, LOL! We'll see ! #2364984

This is lovely Mary ~ I thought it still showed the 31st on your entry so perhaps you made it just in time ... I think we're all going to have to get create with the colour theme this month ~ there's not much but grey outside right now!! #2365215

Mary N C. Taitt February 01, 2006

I uploaded it late last night but didn't submit it until this morning--whoops! Oh well!

Thank you for your kind comments. I've just been playing with pink and purple, LOL! For tomorrow. #2365232

Emile Abbott level-classic February 01, 2006

Mary this is awesome and so beautiful. Love the reflections and colors. The stillness of the water so well captured. Heck it would fit in a lot of categories. #2365913

Thank you Keith, Emile, Kristi and Gail for your kind and generous comments. Mary :-) #2366237

Dan McConoughey February 01, 2006

Mary tell Keith lots of luck, I've seen a digital camera disassembled and there are about a million parts. Seems to me odds are slim and none, but I've been wrong before.
Love the shot, the colors and detail are great and the mood is wonderful, kind of reminds me of a beaver dam for some reason. #2366244

Mary N C. Taitt February 01, 2006

Thanks, Dan! It does remind me of a beaver Dam, except in this case I think it was rocks. :--)

Nothing to lose with the camera. It's not working now. Keith's pretty talented so it's a better chance than none at all. #2366266

Darryl Wilkinson February 01, 2006

Awesome colors and scenery, Mary, love this shot!!! #2366892

Mary N C. Taitt February 02, 2006

Thanks, Darryl. I'm doing like you and looking at some older shots, since I ahven't been able to get out. Mary :-) #2367876
