On Golden PondPosted by Suzanne (Huntington Bch, California, United States) on 9 January 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio. Since I discovered her blog, I've been greatly influenced by the beautiful work of Marcie Scudder, Daily Practice. She has inspired me to take my camera along when I walk my dog at our local park. Being on the opposite coast from where she creates, there aren't any swans to photograph...mostly a lot of ducks and a bunch of old coots, but even so, I've managed to capture a few images I've posted on this blog. Anyway, thank you Marcie and I hope you don't mind my imitations. If you like my photos, please take a moment to leave a rating on VFXY. Just click on the link below. Thank you, Suzanne
