When we were at Blue Run Park, I took photos of the observation deck across the Rainbow River.
It's beautiful where we were standing too but I was mesmerized by the scene in front of me.
Hubby was taking pics too!
It was hard to choose a favorite photo!
So I'll share a mosaic of every one I took!
I love taking photos of the swamp as we walk too.
It had rained the day before and the water level was high.
Beautiful!
And more of the swamp photos in a mosaic!
Doesn't this cloud look like a feather?
(or have I stood outside too long looking up into the sun? heehee)

Thank you for the swampy and beautiful memories. I miss Cypress Knees! Before we ever came to Florida I thought swamps were scary places -- now I love visiting them. (Of course the boardwalks and paths are absolutely necessary for my enjoyment :
...water is nature's mirror.
do not see a feather, i see a phoneix rising up. LOVE those swamp photos, knees and the bottoms of the trees rising from duckweed are stunning to me
Happy August, Diane! Beautiful reflections in the water! I always find swamps so interesting as I know they are teeming with life beneath the murky green water.
Beautiful! I remember visiting the swampy areas on our last trip to Florida. I was in awe, of the swamp and its wildlife. A great experience. Thanks for the share and Happy August!
p.s. yes, I do see the feather.
I really enjoyed the last two posts from Blue Run Park. A gorgeous spot!
Many people are surprised when they actually visit a swamp at how beautiful they are.
Terrific images!
Everything is so green and lovely and so very different from here. I have never seen a swamp, so your pictures are educational as well as beautiful. It's wonderful that you and your hubby can get out together and explore.
Great photos!
To me the sky photo looks like a flag being waved back and forth, so that part of the flag is on one side of the pole kind of furled up, and the rest of the flag furled up on the other side.
Hi Diane!-- THat is a beautiful scene--- it needs to be painted and photographed !!!--- like you did, and yES I do see a feather! Happy AUGUST!!!
You are right- the photos are so wonderful I don't think I could choose a favorite either. I love the reflection in the water of the foliage.

The reflection on the water is really beautiful.

Beautiful scenes and a lovely sky image. The cloud does look like a feather.
Take care, have a great day!
It is wonderful to know that there are places on earth that are pristine, undeveloped, and beautiful. I love this. I, too, look for beauty and shapes in the clouds, and this one is most unusual.
Yes, I can understand why you both enjoyed your walk to see this beautiful view and the swamp looks amazing. Enjoy your walks this week Diane.
i do see the cloud as a feather, it is so pretty!! the views and reflections are gorgeous!!
was hubby the mesmerising view? hehehehe
Very lush and green like a swamp. 🙂
Glad that you were able to get out and about...
Hi Diane! This is Gina from long ago. I'm back to blogging after taking a hiatus. I see that you are still enjoying your photography, hikes, and nature! Blessings!
Hi,
I like the swamp photos. Swamps fascinate me. My parents have a swamp on their property. I always enjoy peeking at it, during winter I can walk into it.
I also wanted to share with you, you are mentioned in my blog post scheduled for posting Thursday. :-)
Love you, Carla
Some lovely reflections here.
Yes, that cloud does look like a feather.
All the best Jan
Tus fotografías están preciosas, me encantan. Besos.
Yes, the cloud does look like a feather! So pretty. There were lots of swamps in New Orleans when the girls visited. The Rainbow River is lovely. I like that photo you took of your husband taking a photo. So glad you got rain, wonderful!
