Event: My brother playing golf and I went along to drive the golf cart and occassionally get side tracked with my camera...:o)
You know the problem is I'm from the north so I don't get to see plant life in ponds like this so I have no idea what kind of water plant this is, I just happen to think it was kind of pretty?

Hi Donna,
I believe the plant is some type of Water Hyacinth. Water hyacinth is native to South America but has naturalized much of the Southern U.S.

Very pretty, but they can take over a pond. Nice vibrant color saturation with good detail. You managed the bright sunlight well in this exposure.

Don't tell me that ship of your husbands was in the Atlantic?! Myrtle Beach is very beautiful as you have shown with colors and fauna here. A nice violet touch. The place changes in lifestyle in th spring when kids are out for break.

Hi Donna.
I like your artistic view on common things. Your picture as well as the pictured place is charming. Excellent POV and cropping, fine well saturated colours create a very nice impression. May be I would prefer more large DOF and sharp BG. Well art work. TFS and kind regards.

Nice composition here, Donna. I like the diagonals and the almost abstract look of it. The reflection on the left darkens it in a way that frames the image. Well done!
Mike
