This is lovely, Larry!

I think it would have scored better without the fountain giving it a man-made impression when... without it, we think it's far away with only the egret in nature.

Or, maybe I'm nuts.

That must be it. I've been told... :D

Thanks everyone for the terrific comments. It was more fun reading your reactions than it was composing the shot.

my first thought was that golfer guy .. and this is something his wife did for him .. but of course there may be other Larry's in dpc .. and i dont think he's old enough ..
this is actually quite a tender and lovely image .. and one that i hope you will keep .. the photograph that is ..
the beautiful hand crafted tapestry or whatever it is is beyond wonderful .. and something i can imagine being passed down to your children and grandchildren .. its very precious ..
many congratulations on the 40th in 2013 and now the 46 th .. :)

i've just read the myriad of comments you have received for this photo .. just by the comments you should have got the blue .. however .. the blue would have been very hard to beat ..

i love that you consistently come out with such imaginative takes on the challenges ..
wish there was a pill for that .. JOKE .!!.
would probably turn out harmful .. in some random unexpected way ..

and i've been thinking for some time that sunscreen could be just another thing that is supposedly good but turns out bad .. my thinking is that most things that are 'artificial' turn out to be a bit dangerous for us humans .. and every other lifeform on the planet ..
anyway .. i got a bit carried away there .

what i actually came here to say was ..
THIS IS FANTASTIC .. altho quite weird .. like ppl have said ..
and almost difficult to look at ... like you have some terrible disfiguring skin condition .. should i delete that bit .. you never know when you could offend someone unintentionally .. i feel political correctness has totally lost the plot .. :)
