A beautiful image enhanced by the lighting and mood. So peaceful and perfect for resting in the summer heat. V+

A flattering point of view makes a very nice photograph love the Weeping Willow tree and the Geese trying to enjoy some shade and late lunch.

It looks like such a fantastic spot for a rest. I really like the composition with the canopy of willows. V

A pleasant hot-weather hangout under the shade of a Weeping Willow tree.

A nice protected spot that is very attractive to nesting birds, no doubt. Seems quite popular.

Everyone looks for a shady spot to stay away from the sun. Smart birds. ~VVV~
