Emerald River


 

That autumn morning the river was a rare emerald color with golden ripples and it seemed that an American Avocet was swimming on a mirror surface in a golden light unaware that in a few minutes he will be illuminated by the sun and his plumage would turn white.








The Bear River is very fickle and has many faces.  In a storm it's threatening dark blue, in winter it's steel, in autumn it has many shades of green and gold and on rainy days the Bear River becomes sullenly gray.

Generally, life is good!

  5. Es preciosa la luz que ilumina el río y preciosas las reflexiones que se producen en él.

  6. Dos bonitas fotografía, Kaya, los reflejos refuerzan la composición y sobre todo en la ultima imagen forman unas simetrías muy atractivas.

    Saludos.
