Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for the springing fresh from the world

Sweet the rain's new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where his feet pass

Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God's recreation of the new day

-Cat Stevens

Early morning walk in Pecan Acres park. This park has been around as long as I can remember. It's actually a giant orchard of Pecan trees. This creek in the photo is Lanana Creek. Normally the water is too high to get down on the rocks, but this morning I was able to climb down and get some photographs.

Hi Stephen !
Nice PP. It gives the picture something magic. Is it the romance filter ? I don't know this filter. The green is beautifull and the light well managed.
Congrats.
Denis.

I can only say i for one is glad that the water was low thios day, so that you got the oportunity to climb down and take this picture. The refelction adds a lot to this i think. I wonder if i had not treid to add some more red to the picture, to make it warmer...as the place and atmpsphere itself seem so inviting. Good work as usual.

This is the type of place where I like to throw a twig from one side of the bridge, and run to the other side to watch it float by. I know, I never grew up. Love the effect from the romance filter. I'm hooked on them too now. The composition is very nice, and the reflection in the creek is beautiful. A nice place for a walk...on the rocks.

Hi Stephen,
Such a lovely photograph! It looks like a paiting. very idyllic and very dreamlike.
I specily like the soft colours.
very well doen!

takecare, Stef

Another dreamy landscape Stephen. And how beautiful this one is. The reflections are superbly caught, but it's the green that I find the most incredible. What an amazing green this is. Beautiful.

Ana

Superb composition Stephen. Wonderful colours and lighting and details. So green and calm and peaceful. And the reflections are quite magical. Well done, I love this scene.
