Changing Seasons - Weekend Reflections

Looking at reflections on a winter day. This photo was taken at a local park last week.

Are you perhaps wondering what this same little pond looked like in the Summer? In Autumn?

Beautiful pond throughout the year! Each season has a different look, and the reflections are just stunning, Judy!

What a beautiful reflection puicture of the pond. There is a lot of difference between summer and winter pond. Both are good/

The reflections are so rich, with so much depth within the water! I like your NeoPlanet, by the way. is the yellow indicating past seismic activity, I wonder.

but I do not see any snow in your picture. Haha.. I only can link winter to snow.

Lynn said...

You should think about framing the seasons; the photos are wonderful; the reflections are awesome.

TC said...

So beautiful, I was wondering where the snow was too? LOL
Great photos.

The Japanese Redneck said...

I love the transformations. Great captures.

Sandra said...

autumn and summer are beautiful, but for some reason the winter scene appeals to me more, it says peaceful to me.

DJan said...

I love comparisons by seasons. And I hear you over there on the other side of the Cascades are also on track for a record breaking warm January! El Nino is to blame. I also love the summer picture, so lush and green. Hope it will be that way this summer.

Josie said...

SQ, I am absolutely speechless. The comparisons are just...whoooo hooo fabulous! Love them! Everyday you make me SMILE. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Happy Friday! Much Love.

What a wonderful surprise! Each picture looks so completly different that I would have never known it's the same place. I kept going back and forth between them, finding differences and also trying to find something the same in all three. I think that would be the small evergreen tree.

I loved this...I always talk about how different our wilderness and forests look in the four seasons...sometimes you can be in the exact spot and you wouldn't even recognize it, it changes so much with the seasons.

Kelly said...

I just love your photos. My dad was a professional photographer and you'd think I would have inherited his artistic eye. You'd think wrong.

I loved seeing the pond through the seasons! Each one looked so different and beautiful in their own way!

Crafty Green Poet said...

lovely to see the pond through the seasons...

Diane AZ said...

I enjoy seeing the same location in different seasons and this is a fantastic setting! The seasonal changes are astonishing and beautiful.

Laura Hegfield said...

I too love watching the dramatic changes of the very same place in a different season. Not so unlike reflecting upon our human experiences, moment to moment, day to day, year to year.

Kay said...

I like the reflection with the ripples and how it looks slightly different than the real trees.

diane said...

A great triage of pics. The seasons really give you a variety of scenery. Here we have only boring wet or dry, green or brown.

What a great series. The reflections are beautiful, and I love seeing the differences through the seasons. Kathy

Pam said...

What a beautiful way to show how the reflections change with each season. Your seasonal shots of the pond are gorgeous, Judy.

James said...

All of these are good but I think the middle one is fantastic!

Lindy MacDuff said...

Beautiful, amazing transformations. You've got us primed for springtime now, you know! =)

Serendipity said...

Wonderful series. The colours in the autumn shot are lovely :)

Ebie said...

This is a great accomplishment for showing us the changing colors and reflections of the season.

Great capture as always Judy.

This is sucjh a lovely spot from which to take photos!

englishwilderness said...

The photos are fantastic. It's interesting to see the same scene across the seasons. I'd love to sit there with a picnic :-)

Self Sagacity said...

I would like these to frame please... They are all equally beautiful. My SO would pick the autumn one for our place because he likes a little color in pictures...:-)
