Description
I took this photo shortly after sunrise on February 8, 2022, at Frank G. Bonelli Park, Los Angeles County, with a friend. I used my own Olympus OM-D, E-M1 Mark II camera, with a borrowed 100-400mm Panasonic-Leica lens (ISO 800 f/5.1 1/200s). My loved ones and I agree that the feathers in the water, with reflection, remind us of a bridal gown. The ethereal quality of the photo also brings to mind sacred ritual.

Thank you so much, Jeanne. And by the way, I've had my work on Smugmug for more than three years. No community there. I am appreciating fineartamerica!
