Description
The Bourne Stream on the Heath.
I was inspired to post this when I saw Tara's photo of a swamp, although her pic has the most beautiful light which mine lacks.
The stream seems perfectly clean at the present, but is prone to pollution from run-off from factory carparking lots about two miles upstream. Sometimes it can smell quite distinctly of diesel. I expect all that rain cleaned up the road surfaces quite well for the time being.
There is another view of this spot Here

Lovely walk for the dogs.
Super photo Andrea :)
A rerally beautiful shot., Andrea :-)
EXCELLENT SHOT!
You have been able to catch the sunlight on the water and that adds a little extra to this fine shot.
Outstanding detail, atmosphere and color in this pic of the Bourne Stream and environs, Andrea. The water does look polluted with something or other at the bottom of the image.
Beautiful creek Great shot
love the shadows the branches and downed trees cast on the creek .. a lovely image Andrea.
Wonderful light and reflections on the water. A beautiful image.
This is a beautiful place. What a shame about the pollution. Are there no government regulations that require the factory to contain its own runoff.?
A lovely image and super light Andrea.
magical !
Superb capture Andrea. God bless.
a very beautiful shot, really interesting they way the trunks and branches divide up the canvas
I love that you can see the pebbles on the bottom so clearly; this light has a misty quality that's quite appealing. Beautiful capture!
It is a very special photo, Andrea. The perspective, the fallen tree , the branches crossing in the left side, all the geometric lines along the image and the reflections in the water, yet, you captured the sunlight along the stream...makes your image extremely misterious!Stlelar! Much to see here.
A very fine photo of this wet area.
wonderful
Lovely little stream this.
I like both versions and all that soggy land seems to not be supporting the trees very well!
Both shots are beautiful, and this one is a closer, more intimate view. (The flickr version has a beautiful sinewy feel to it.) Both this and Tara's shot are wonderful, and I don't know if you can get that southern Louisiana light in anything as far north as where you live---or in any other such locale in the world. (I've been there, and that place has a light unlike any other place I've been.) Anyway, this is composed so nicely, it flows back with such light. And the tree branches falling over the back part of the water are like natural bridges. Because of the shallower water, we can see what's inside it, and that, along with reflections and light, make it speckled as if with gold. And the rest is just big confluences of branches and trees, making a jungle around the water. It's gentle and very active and has real beauty. And that "V" made by the center tree centers the shot dead-on. Fine sensitive seeing.
