It was very late one summer evening that my oldest daughter and I walked about a mile into a dark forest to get this picture (and several others). What was really memorable was that the wind picked up right after this and made reflection shots impossible. So glad I got this one.
But the most memorable thing about this excursion was a big bullfrog! It would have been in the bottom right of this picture. It was past midnight, you are in the middle of a dark forest and then you hear the weirdest sound that makes your hair stand up. Luckily, it was just a frog. But the first croak was quite startling!
Lovely photo and narrative!
I really look forward to your pictures… they are certainly Picture of the Day or sometimes maybe Picture of the Year!
