For your eyes only?

Last evening I sat down on a bridge crossing a pond at the Old Mill District in Bend, Oregon and took this picture of the sunset and its reflection through a wire mesh railing designed to keep small children and pets from falling into the water below. The resulting grid of colors and shapes is my offering for Scenic Sunday. This picture is for the eye alone. Sometimes words are fingerprints on crystal clear glass.

This is really unexpected. I thought it was all reflective surfaces until you explained it! Nice!!! I love the last line of your post, and it's so true.

I agree that any more words would be superfluous. Still, it reminds me of a poem I wrote many years ago, which I can almost-but-not quite remember.

Fantastic shot, Lee, as always! You do manage to catch the best of Oregon and that's not easy because there is so much beauty there! Don't stop!

Have a great week!

I love reflections and this one is simply perfect. The lights, the sky, the trees, perfect I say!

The colour is amazing. Life through the looking glass kinda surrealism to this one! Kudos! I love it!
