In the middle of Autumn, in the middle of the day, I have never seen so much gold colors. A small pond at the Rocky Oaks Park tucked in the middle of the Santa Monica Mountains in the city of Malibu.

Plants that the wildlife feeds on have given a nice shape and colors

Ripples of water at the shallow end

Water fowls like to show off their trails too!

The blue water provides a great contrast to the dry leaves.

Wow! What a wonderful feast for my eyes. These are really stunning and I’m not sure which is my favorite but I must comment on the beautiful tones of the rippling water. Just gorgeous!

Wonderful series of photos! I love the way you have shown the setting of the pond, and then moved in close for the details!! My favourite shot is the one with the ducks in the golden reflections!!

I love the way you’ve concentrated on different elements of the water–the reflections, plant life, the water fowl–in this one photo story. Very much a fall study.
