I have photographed Scudder's Pond about a billion times since I came to Sea Cliff in November of 1966. It is pretty scenic and with wildlife like birds, ducks, and geese the things to photograph are endless. So as I passed by on my walk yesterday, the Phragmites caught my eye and I saw the orange trees in the distance, here out of focus, and there were some Phragmites in the foreground. I tried climbing the fence made from steel pipe but I couldn't get myself high enough. So then I started shooting through the plants in the foreground. Sometimes I focused on the trees in the background and sometimes, as here, I focused on the Phragmites. I think this is interesting because we can examine the reed and see straight ones, and curved ones and diagonal ones. It is a more subtle photograph, but to me, quite interesting. It is better if you click on it to enlarge the photograph and so can see more details.
A calming and beautiful photo.
