  1. The water has a paint-like quality. Kind of mesmerizing.

    1. Hi HKatz: I know--I really like that, but I have no idea how it happened that way! Thanks.

  3. Great capture of the water doing one of its special tricks. Canada Geese are always a good add, tho' here they're optional compared to the river water itself.

    1. Banjo52: I'd agree with your observation about the geese, but I like how they contrast with the water. It was doing an amazing thing in terms of catching the light!
