This is likely not a “good” photograph. It does not have a clear subject. It is chaotic. It follows no composition rules - that i know of, and I just find it fascinating. It was taken at the same place as yesterday’s photo, Merchant Mill Pond State Park, on the same trip. The park is well done and has several trails, camping, canoe rental, and a very nice Visitor Center. You had to be very careful walking on the edge of the pond/swamp and not just because you were watching for the alligator, it was hard to walk with the scores of cypress knees half hidden in the fallen leaves. But what a day. Bright blue skies, the beginnings of color in the foliage, intensely green duckweed over much of the pond, and lots of beautiful potential images everywhere. So why this one? I love the color, the randomness and the fact it reminds me of God’s stained glass, more brilliant and more gorgeous than one found in a church. Hope you enjoy as well.
