Thank you, Alice, for this peaceful stroll this morning. I feel like I've had my morning exercise and can get on with my gardening now!
Those trees, the water, the blue sky...all glorious. The colours in those trees are gorgeous! You certainly know how to frame a photo!
That park is well taken care of and a beautiful area for a walk.

Such clear skies, and lovely colours. There seems to be so much...space! We have a few black swans in the UK - Ive seen a couple in Devon, and Kew Gardens had some as a gift from Australia years and years ago.
