Here are three more from my trip to Banks Lake.  I think it makes more sense to call it Lilypad Pond!

It's inevitable that sooner or later one wants to expand photographic sites and include new subjects.  So it was with me when I heard from a friend about Banks Lake National Wildlife Sanctuary.  It's a mother lode of cypress trees, Spanish moss, and water.  It was a long schlep to reach the place in Georgia (made longer by my having gotten lost), but it turned out to be very worthwhile.  Here are two images from that trip.  (MF Film, #15 deep yellow filter)

I think I've been to most of the accessible photo sites in this immediate areas that I know about at least once.  Still, there are paths and approaches that I'm discovering now for the first time. This photograph was taken along one of them.  It is nearly overgrown, and on the morning I walked there, it was really hot, humid and buggy.  When I came to the clearing where I put the camera for this photograph there was a light but very welcome breeze and I was happy to linger a little while.
