Hi Bill,
It's at the Johnson Nature Center on Franklin between Long Lake and
Square Lake. This pond is on the stream that's on the north border of
the property. I frequently go there to shoot birds, and, in the summer,
dragonflies. Nice place, although it's only 18 acres.

Hi Paul,
Where is this? I don't recognize it - it doesn't appear to be the one
on
Square Lake near Telegraph. And are you saying you'll be doing a show
there? Keep the good work coming....y.Bill Sawyer

Thanks for looking and commenting, Kostas and all the others who have
replied.
No, the pier itself is the only access. The pond is actually part of a
La
stream. It's formed by the damming effect of some fallen trees. In the
summer I come here to shoot dragonflies. I'm going to have to do a
color summer shot of this same area now that I have a sufficiently wide
lens. It's very pretty with many aquatic plants and fallen tree trunks,
but I never had a lens wide enough to cover it adequately.

I set a new personal record for filter extravagance and bought an
77mm R72 for my DA 12-24/4. Shot a little pond this morning. It's
at 12mm, f11, 4 second exposure.

Sure conveys a feeling of crispness.
Is it snow or is it IR? I think it is a great picture, despite the
central feature.
There's a light snow cover. I shot some without the central pier as
well using different camera positions. To me, the pier makes it more
than another pond picture.
Thanks for the answer. I agree the pier is quite a feature. I was
suggesting (without of course knowing the circumstances) that if it
was on one side pointing towards the centre it could have been another
interesting shot. Not sure if it is possible.
