PG 101 Negative Space theme entry
Another marsh landscape from the nature reserve of Etang de la Gruère near Saignelégier, Switzerland.
I was lucky to catch the ripples in the water created from a hungry trout search for a morning snack.
In the background you can see the morning fog burning off.

We get a lot of fog in the mornings here aat the lake this time of year, Les, but my view isn't nearly this pristine or lovely through it. You've captured this beautifully. #4908437Kara L. Hendricks October 10, 2007

Beautiful shot Les!! Love the mood and reflections :0) #4911065Carol Teal October 11, 2007
This looks so peaceful Les. It makes me wonder if there is a lunker bass (which I doubt you have where you live, but if this place was in the South, this looks just like where one would hide)hiding among the branch in the water. I sure wouldn't mind casting a line in on this beautiful morning! Great theme entry and sorry I am late in commenting but I finally had to go to bed this morning about 5AM! #4914649eileen bedford October 14, 2007
