Wetlands - Turnbull Game Preserve

Posted by Slackwater - don (spokane, United States) on 14 July 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

A seasonal pool on the Turnbull Game Preserve about 20 miles (32.1k) from my home. I liked the stark reflection of the sun and tried to get it and the surrounding reeds in a high contrast black and white image. A scanned medium format negative.
