The Weekend in Black and White: rocks and water


I love to watch water passing over rocks, even when there aren't significant falls. I find it beautiful the way water looks like brush strokes on rocks.

    I do so too as once in my life we used to live in a place where a big river was not far behind us. It was my place of refuge when I felt sad, angry, frustrated and disappointed with life. There I stared at the water running over the rocks, some would trickle in between them and in the midst of the river where boulders sat, waters gushed powerfully to create thundering drum sounds.

    Lovely shot to remind me of a childhood scenario.

    I love to look and be near by the water, it gives some peace to the mind, when you just sit an relax by the water...

    Your beautiful water and rocks shot with the light glistening so brightly reminds me of areas around the house that I so love to photograph. I find myself doing it all the time...especially on my way home from work. This photo is lovely.
