I've waited a couple of days so as not to distract attention from Richard's
most excellent photograph. But some of you who've swooned over the blue, blue
reflection in the water of the sky apparently haven't spent much time in a
swamp. Nothing wrong with that, but if you had, you'd realize that the deep
blue sky in the photograph comes more as a result of the black water than of
the true sky color.
Here's a scan of a shot I made many years ago (probably 20 or more) while
fishing in the Okefenooke, the Mother of all Swamps around here. It was just an
ordinary spring day with an ordinary south Georgia sky.

P.S. There's a dragonfly somewhere in there.
P.P.S. Richard's shot is way more better than this one
