Description
These two hooded mergansers were leisurely swimming away from me. This was taken at Leaburg Dam in Oregon, home to a fish hatchery. Here, the McKenzie River looks like a lake, with the water generally very beautiful and still as opposed to upriver. This was during the winter, so there were ripples. A cormorant stands in the distance on a tree trunk that has ended up at this point. I love the color of the water, green and blue, and the diffused reflections.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.

Terrific, peaceful, soothing image, Belinda. Love the off-center placement of the mergansers and their long reflections. L.
