The lake doesn't have much water (more than in the last few summers though) and the black swans have mostly left, but this cluster of weeds is pretending to be one.

Tell that to the Loch Ness monster. Looks a bit like one of the classic 'captures' of said creature. Nicely spotted.

What a cool abstract! Wonderful mesh of colors, the weeds are like sweeps of brush strokes. Great title!

Love the colors in the water and the great ripples. The black "swans" are very neat too! Great photo.

Wow...how clever! I sure does look like an abstract swan. I could see this done as a sculpture.

This is a REALLY creative shot. Perfect example of making something out of not much.
