It’s always good, sometimes essential, to have a place to escape to; somewhere that whisks away one’s worries and makes the world, for a little while at least, seem much more like a friend, than foe. Arguably the kind of sanctuary that the home should offer, but of late, regular aftershocks have upset that somewhat.
So for me, a quiet little pond, that’s fortunately not far away, is just such a spot. A beautiful place where tremors aren’t noticeable, and this fella, obliviously going about his business, is incredibly calming.
Even more so with the added ambience of running water.
Plus, now and again, some pleasing signs of the passing seasons.

Very nice shot with the cherry blossom on the water. The sound adds a new dimension to it.

Cheers Matt! The quietness, apart from the sound of the water, is a big part of why I like the place so much, so I was keen to include it.

Looking at the pictures with the added ambience of running water,
