While biking today I stopped at an old mill pond on Mill or Mill Pond Rd. south of Mt. Brydges, Ont.
I snapped several pictures and before I left I wrote the following notes:
“two sounds only - birds chippin’, water falling”
“oak leaves aplenty on bottom of pond”
["I love all leaves, especially those I don't have to rake"]
“pond very still, reflections near perfect”
["Fall scenes near, or covered in, water": photos GH]
I took 3 dozen shots today, most were of leaves that will be entombed in ice before winter’s out, and I could have been standing over them in short sleeves.

It's the small things that give the most pleasure in life, I find.
BTW, I bought Cinema Paradiso today and did you get my e-mail?
Hi Veen,
Though many folks were out for their last ride yesterday (Fri.), I was the only one taking pictures of sunken leaves. That's part of the attraction, I think - that I've got the pond to myself.
Well done re the film. I'll enjoy hearing what you think.
Email arrived safely. So did grandson Ollie (age 4; his first sleep-over) and he knows how to distract me like no one else.
i'll be back.

Good photos - check out my photo in my header - kinda looks familiar no? Great minds think alike...fools never differ:)
Hi Jane,
I agree w the 'great minds think alike' part. Good post at your site; I posted a 'link up' to your site, so your numbers will likely go thru the roof.
And if they don't, I had nothing to do with it.
Cheers
