159/365....Sun Faeries....

Sun Faeries Dancing.
It was my mother who told me the reflections of the sun and moon on the water were faeries dancing.
To a four year old's mind it was soooooo true. 


This is the lake I grew up on. The lake I learned to swim on.
The dock I, at first, jumped from then later dived from.
I spent nearly all the days of Summer in this lake. Rain or shine, I was in the water.
At least once a year my friend and I would swim the width of it. (we'd rest then swim back)
Gads, the joy this lake gave me.

  1. Calma, stunning photo and thanks for sharing the memories of it for you growing up.

    I love the idea of faeries dancing on the water, with the glisten of the sun.
