The Great Swamp

Posted by Laurie (New Jersey, United States) on 26 October 2006 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This shot was taken last Saturday afternoon on a walk through the Great Swamp Wildlife Refuge. It is just that, a swamp. There are walkways, like this one, that wind their way through the swamp to observation blinds set up for bird, and wildlife watching. There wasn't much in the way of wildlife around when we were there, but it was a beautiful day. The leaves, what was left of them, were very pretty and as you can see the sky was a beautiful blue.

A little note on my last post; I was thrilled with how well it was received and I thank everyone for the wonderful feedback. I was feeling much better when I took it, I wasn't really sick anymore but that was how I did feel when I was sick. I plan on doing some more in the theme of suffering, but they are really in no way a reflection of me and how I am. I am pretty up-beat, most of the time, and reasonably well adjusted. These are just experiments into showing emotions through self portraiture. I plan on following that theme with one on Joy.
