Location City -  De Hoop Nature Reserve
State -  WESTERN CAPE
Country - South Africa   South Africa
About A wild duck in search for food in the De Hoop lagoon ( a freshwater lagoon cut of by sand dunes from the sea nearby) on a very windy day. The dark colour of the water is caused by high tanin concentrations transported from the mountains about 30 kilometers away. The yellow colour is caused by large masses of algae drifting in the water, covering the edges of the lagoon in a yellow/white papery scale when it dries out. A different and very interesting ecosystem.

Amazing pattern of bands and colours - well seen, Joggie! The interpretation of the project theme is perfect! (I missed this theme entirely while off-line.)

Apart from the duck, Joggie, you've got great patterns in the water here in colour, shade and the shapes they present.

What a beautiful thing you have created Joggie! One of your best pictures for my taste. First of all the texture of all: water, sand, medow ... The the colour contrast between the cold undefinable grey/blue water and the very warm tonalities in the stripe of earth. Finally the hint of duck, sweet little thing dominated by the big elements of the nature. I love it joggie and I must steal this photo to you again.
Take care.

Excellent photo, I like a lot the texture, the 'wildness' on it, the waves and the shapes from the water different waves, and the way the water 'connected' with the ground's colors, that gives an idea of a ...colorfull water that just condinius to the yellow and even to green area, excellent.
