Dark Waters

This is another photo from the wildlife refuge. It is a reflection of the cumulus clouds in the water of one of the ponds. I am not sure why the water looks so gray. There are streams flowing through the refuge, and into this pond. Those streams are crystal clear. This water was clear enough to see Carp swimming near the surface, but for some reason the water was dark gray. The surface of the water reflected the clouds, but it was a strange look. Usually water will reflect both the white clouds, and the blue sky, but not here. Small leaves were floating on the surface a well. I love the strange dark moody look of the photograph.
