Calmness amongst the reeds

Sunday 6th March 2005 - Day 78

Todays walk was at Roadford Reservoir... a pleasant if chilly day. I saw these reeds and thought that they made a monochromatic statement against the bright sunlit water.

I was hoping for a bit more bird life in camera range, but this is the best I really managed

Excellent, Lee! Simplicity at its finest!
Donna Lear06-Mar-2005 17:13
This is striking, Lee. First the bright color from yesterday and now the pure minimalist of this b&w. I can easily see both of these blown up to poster size and framed. I think I'm jealous. lol

So delicate!
Guest 06-Mar-2005 16:40
I forgot, the reeds and its shadows in the water.
Guest 06-Mar-2005 16:39
Very nice,Lee! Miminalist. I like how the only thing we see are the reeds in the photo and really nothing else and how you post-process it.
Susanne06-Mar-2005 16:29
