3 from Highams Park Lake

[Dark Star]

Took the camera for a stroll today around the local lake. Here are 3 I quite liked, hope you do too .

1) Wood

2) Swan

3) Swan again

I love that first one John, the reflection is fab isn't it? Nice to see the rain hitting the lake too.

Swan shot is nice and sharp too, great droplet and feather detail in the third.

Thanks for sharing

Thanks StarRider - yep its the same lake! Woodford Green/Chingford way! A little oasis of calm!

(Whicker island refers to a nickname I had on here many moons ago!)
