Pond that is. Well it's what the locals call it. :D

Bodacious looking place, but have you ever been to a place that has all the required needs for wildlife.
However no matter how hard I've looked can't get much action going.
I know photogs have been here and caught a bobcat and I have seen some eluvsive Quail.
Anyway wildlife abundant or not it's a cool place to visit :thumb

    Excellent saturation in the color. The pond shot is very nice, almost surreal.

    It is the purpose of life that each of us strives to become actually what he is potentially. We should be obsessed with stretching towards that goal through the world we inhabit.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
