I was so excited when I found out the subject of this week's You Capture would be water. It was perfect. We were finally finishing the renovation of our water garden so I would be able to show pictures of the hopefully beautiful finished product. The one thing I knew for sure was that I wouldn't be posting pictures of Striebel Pond since I posted a zillion of those last week.
So here are my 'water' pictures - all taken at Striebel Pond. You know the old saying, "the best laid plans......"
These are all SOOC. No editing. I don't have time. I've got a water garden to finish.

You have so much fun with this pond!!! Love it. I do the same with the creek behind my house.
ReplyDeleteOh, what beautiful light and subtle color in these! My favorite is the first shot of the swan family. Beyond the light and color, I love the ripples circling around them.
ReplyDeleteHave fun working on your garden!
Well for doing all of these without editing, they turned out fabulous! These are gorgeous! I have got to get there and see this place...
ReplyDeleteOooh! Love #3 and 4! These sunset reflections are gorgeous! I'm loving that pond through your photos...
ReplyDeleteOHHHHH, three and four are totally awesome! Great captures.
ReplyDeletegreat job catpuring those reflections...almost looks like the water is on fire in that one!
ReplyDeletelove love love the pictures!! The heron shot is impressive, the shadow is so sharp and defined. No worries on your own pond pictures, I'm sure those will be coming very shortly :-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, I love the heron! And the two just after that one are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love all your bird shots! It looks very peaceful. :)
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful and serene looking!
ReplyDeleteThe reflections are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! I'm glad you shared these shots...and I can't wait to see your finished water garden! :)
ReplyDeleteI love, love that second shot.
ReplyDeleteReally nice, Mom! Beautiful. My fave is that heron(?) and his awesome reflection on the water.
ReplyDeleteI love the heron pic!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I love the heron! Stunning.
ReplyDeleteI went to the lake too, to get some pictures. And I saw a stunning sight: a group/herd/flock/pack (???) of pelicans swimming by. By the time I got my camera out they were too far away to photograph.
Btw: pelicans are RARE in Alberta. So I was super-bummed. (And may have cursed the fates a little bit.)
Oh too funny, I was wondering what you had up your sleeve bummer it didn't work out. (I was in Canada all week and just got to check this out.)
ReplyDeleteI like the crane shot!
