Summer Morning over Lake Bonney BW by Lexa Harpell.
Camped by the lake, I had time to wait for a dead calm early morning, devoid of ripples to capture their interesting reflections. What I wasn't expecting was the variety of cloud patterns floating by. Wading out into the lake to capture the clouds and blue sky, yet still had the sun bright hot summer sun illuminating the trees. (Luckily I was wearing my hiking boots!)
Lake Bonney is a freshwater lake fed by the mighty Murray River in South Australia. A variety of dead gum trees stand as sentinels in the lake.
I find dead trees fascinating, as their twisted and curved limbs stand bare to wonder their path of growth usually hidden by leaves.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
