Title: Spring Puddle alight
Post by: Leszek Piotrowski on November 13, 2024, 06:06:19 pm

Not much to stumble on back then,... but looked down,.. and my eye was caught,... by this puddle in the woods?

f/8, 135mm, 1/40 sec, ISO 200, handheld

visually disturbing when in landscape orientation. Or was that intended ?

degrub,....Yes intended. Light approaching left to right appealed, but now I can see how the orientation changes the viewing result.

Thank you kindly for your comment.

I'm also puzzled by the orientation… My first thought was about the tar pits in La Brea  ;D

Tar pit? yes, always amazed at how some unexpected common sights in nature seem to resemble something really very different.

Perhaps the reflected tree branch might indeed just be a branch lodged in the woodland mud puddle.


Thanks for your valued comment.
