Standing beside a pond on the end of a low stone dam where it meets the shoreline to our left. The sky is a deep blue with just a handful of small, wispy clouds along the far horizon. The branches of a pine tree frame the top of the pic. A brilliant sun is shining through them to our right. A beautiful forest of stately pines encircles the lake. Sun, sky and pines are mirrored on the almost completely still surface of the pond.
