We meditate so that we may be able to see the world as it is.
~ Muktananda
This is a winter scene, taken in January, at the water's edge of Lynn Creek in a regional park (called Lynn Canyon Regional Park) just a few minutes from our home.
The water in this area is crystal clear; a sanctuary of peace and tranquility .... a place to still the mind.

You have an AMAZING gallery Connie! I love everyone of your photographs. Each and every one is so beautiful in it's color, clarity, and composition. Although it is quite impossible to pick out a favorite from your portfolio, I love the beauty, solitude, and serenity of this image very much. Thanks for sharing your incredible talent. I am glad a camera kept finding you over the years. ~ David f/l

If we can be inspired along the way, we are blessed. I am pleased you favour this image, for it is an area I am very fond for those very things you have referred to: its beauty, solitude, & serenity. So pleased you came to visit it; so very pleased for your support: thank you! :))

I would like to spend a few days camping there

It sounds appealing, Gene; not sure if there is camping at this place .. something to check out on Google, I guess; so glad you like it :))

Connie Handscomb replied:
Yes, love the water here .. ; the scene is not as tranquil as this image when the people come on the weekends to 'seclude themselves in nature' .. lol.. ; thank you for your wonderful support, Linda; ))

Connie Handscomb replied:
About ten minutes away .. {or maybe 15 ..}:))) the park is large but we head for this favorite spot first thing every time we go there ... ; I love the green clear water ... & as placid as it looks here, there are places nearby this serene lagoon where the flow is fast & deep .. .& dangerous}

Connie Handscomb replied:
Yes, the colour of the water is definitely a 'draw' for many people {especially on the weekend! a favorite spot}; thank you Lynda:))
