There's something about the water.....




There's something about the water - that solitary kind of peaceful feeling. 
You're on Earth but not quite.

When you see a fish you don't think of its scales, do you? You think of its speed, its floating, flashing body seen through the water... If I made fins and eyes and scales, I would arrest its movement, give a pattern or shape of reality. I want just the flash of its spirit. Constantin Brancusi

If there is magic on this planet, it is contained in water. Loren Eiseley





I'm off to the lake for close-up of the cabin for the winter. Hope to take photos of autumn around the lake. 


To quote Claude Monet:
These landscapes of water and reflection have become an obsession.
