Description

I have been rather absent here on RR due to various reasons and will try to catch up with comments as I go along. I have just been sent to bed by my doctor for two days with sinus and bronchitis, so hopefully that will force me to calm down a tad!!! This image was taken yesterday while visiting my granddaughter in Potchefstroom, a town/city about 2 hours drive from where I live. The Mooi River runs through the town and we went to a park on the banks. This is a typical SA winter scene. Thank you for popping in and for your valuable comments on this image as well as my previous uploads. Hugs, Carin xx

Carin this is very classy, a mood of its own and it's flanked rather sensibly by the reeds. Excellent! Good luck, take care and get well soon!!!

Great scene and work, Carin. Just saw the Doc myself today. Have been off with bad bronchitis for a week, and she has booked me off for the rest of this week... the next step is x-rays. Get well soon, Clive
