goin' for gold...

...on the water

was this goose - looks like he's walkin' on the water - actually was running - as he took flight - towards gold reflections - of leaves on the water in the late afternoon...

it just depends on the lighting, doesn't it? how the sunlight is then reflected in the water - with those last remaining leaves on the trees - during these autumn days - flickering like shimmering gold - making you want to run your hand along the waters edge - to see if you might capture any treasure - it's difficult not to love this time of day - this time of season - the nip in the air - watching the transformation - you know it's coming - expect it - somehow it always is a wonderful surprise - every time - with what it offers up - making for...

a

happy day.....
