Summer Bloom

Summer Bloom

As summer temperatures heat up, more and more aquatic plants appear in and around the pond. Aquatic plants of the emergent type are rooted below water, but much of the plant will extend above water. Most emergent plants grow in shallow water near shore, like the ones shown.

  • Another Monet-like image, with no horizon line, and reflections adding to the composition. A lovely photo!
