One of the rewarding things about visiting familiar places is when you see things in a different way. It’s true of many subjects including flowers and landscapes. In this case it’s about the water.
I’ve photographed Atherton Brook inside of Gate 15 of the Quabbin Watershed on many occasions and several of those images have appeared here. That is true of this scene also, but I had not taken in the curve aspect seen here. Seems obvious, but one time I looked at the wider picture and another the closer. I think I’ve hit a happy medium here.

Ah, I like this view very much. These mossy rocks are gorgeous. Love this pic.
Did the dog arrive yet?

Not yet, Yvonne. Hopefully he will be here sometime this weekend, but I have not heard anything further since our initial phone conversation. It is possible the owner may change his or her mind. We won’t be sure until they actually surrender the dog.

Yes, I was afraid that might happen. If so, you will still get a Beagle- just don’t know when.

Yes, of that we are certain. It is possible that this dog will not be coming to us as we were disappointed once before with Hennessy, so time will tell.

The S curve is very lush.

Almost any place one stops along Atherton Brook has something of interest to enjoy. It’s a fine brook.

I especially like the places where it seems as though the water’s a veil. In the immediate foreground, it’s as though we can look through the water to the rock beneath. It’s a great effect that adds a little something extra to the curve of the brook.

Ah, my images must be getting to you, Linda. I can remember that, when I first started showing my longer exposure water falls, you preferred more the stop action images over the soft veiled ones. I am sure though that the circumstances control what one is looking for so both can work at different times. There is another waterfall that I have photographed where you can see through and behind the water to mossy surfaces that add some colorful interest to the falls.

However, always remember that it’s ok to ‘attack’ the ideas, but not the people presenting the ideas. Challenging stances and ideas are fine, but personal attacks add nothing to the conversation, and make you look like a jackass. Not what you want. Feel free to disagree, but don’t be disagreeable.
