A broken spillway has lowered lake levels by about 18", leaving some pretty stark scenery.

The summa of reed reflections. A drawing, an abstract, a Paul Klee on a tangent.

Astounding geometry. I would have been tempted to go monochrome, and I'd have missed having an image as beautiful as this.

Remarkable how engaging is this photograph. Every additional moment spent looking at it is repaid with something new. One of the best examples here lately of a thing being so much more than what it really is. Thank you.

Came back to upgrade your picture that stuck to my mind. Looks like a music score and I almost can hear the cicadas. Or frogs! I imagine it still continuing to the right, endlessly. Beautiful! Top 10.

This is a nice find. I love the lines and shapes but not crazy about the colors.

Very cool patterns formed by the snapped twigs and their reflections. Well seen and captured. The golden tone works perfectly.

I really like the random natural geometry and it looks like wallpaper from the stylish and modern 1950s! 8
