There is a small bridge over part of the Mill Pond at Langstone Harbour, where a run-off allows the extra water to drain into the sea. By hanging over the top of the railings and looking straight down with my camera I was able to get a close up of the water as it ran over the lip of the run-off! I think it makes a lovely abstract image, especially if you view large!

It was wonderful in the sunshine at Langstone Harbour this morning, when my wife and I went to feed the birds and get some fresh air............although it was absolutely freezing and most of the birds were hiding in the reed beds. The bit of the pond that wasn't in the sun, was frozen over! After a brisk walk, we treated ourselves to some hot chocolate to warm up, before driving home!

Taken at Emsworth in Hampshire, on a rather gloomy day last month. In the foreground is the fresh water of the sailing club and on the other side of the wall is the salt water of the harbour. The hut is used by the local sailing club to start races etc. Given the weather, black and white seemed the way to go. Better viewed large if you have time. Thanks for looking.

Taken on a very cloudy, but warm day at the end of last month. Although it looks like this could be dusk, the photo was actually taken around midday! The wall and promenade is the divide between the harbour and the mill pond, and is a popular walking route. Better viewed large if you have time. Thanks for looking.

Taken during a walk a week or so ago. The weather was much better than it is at the moment..!! Have a good weekend everyone :-)

At the Mill Pond, Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. Better viewed large I think.

Another look at the Emsworth Mill Pond, Hampshire. Again, taken at dusk in rapidly fading light, with just a hint of the sunset to come. This was captured from the bridge on the main road that runs past the town.

Walking on the ice edge of the mill pond at Langstone Harbour. See the PiP for some bonus mallards :-)

Moorhen on the Mill Pond, Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. A little far out for my lens, so this is a large crop.

A beautiful Tufted Duck on the sunlit water of the Mill Pond, at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. I love his golden eye. Better viewed large on black!

Captured at the edge of the reed beds in the mill pond at Langstone Harbour, Hampshire. The coot seems as impressed by the reflections as I was.

The Slipper Mill Pond, Emsworth, Hampshire. Happy Fence Friday everyone. Have a great day and enjoy the forthcoming weekend.
