 Early morning wetlands at the edge of Great Salt Lake. This pair strolled together, dipping beaks into the shallows, for quite a while, semi-sychronized in a way that reminds me of couples I have known. I find myself enjoying the lines, diagonals, and space shapes, and I hope others will enjoy this too.

Definitely enjoyed by others, I'd say - a top ten in a Free Study is pretty darned impressive! I like the dance-like aspect of this - the ballet of everyday life.
