Hello friends and Hivians. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far. I'm doing great after having a very long week that I didn't think would ever end. Today, I enter into the Reflection Hunters Contest hosted by @olgavita.
It's the 188th edition of it and theres still time to make an entry if you choose too. Just make sure to follow the rules in the announcement post.
On Saturday morning, I had to drop my son off at the university. Once I dropped him off, I decided to stroll around the campus. I came across a small fish pond that was just begging for some photos. I had no intentions looking for reflections they just showed their beautiful selves.
What a neat little fish pond that can disconnect you from the stresses of everyday life. I know if I was a student here, I would visit it by taking a seat on the benches that surround it. The reflections show many of the trees around it, along with a piece of art. The wind was none, the sun was bright, and the temperature was cool sitting at about 53° F (12° C).
Up top of the pond is a small waterfall that feeds the pond. Also, another waterfall flows into it. Once again, some more reflections, this time of plant life and stones. Though they are small, they both give a soothing sound with the short fall and flow of water that I found really calming.
What I really found cool is seeing the fish actually swimming near or in the reflections. I dont think I can remember a time seeing fish through a reflection. I find that odd because I often spend a lot of time on the water. Then again, I'm usually fishing and there aren't bright orange fish like gold fish. Have you seen fish swimming through a reflection?
Well I'm glad I decided to take a stroll of this college campus and witnessed this little fish pond. Things like this are nice to witness and spend time at when you have time to waste. I think I came across it at a perfect time not only for the reflections, but I felt the weather was very favorable. A few hours later, it is already warmer and I think the experience wouldn't be as good.
That's all I have for you today. I hope you enjoyed the water reflections and this little fishing pond.
Take care, stay safe and enjoy the rest of the weekend. Until next time!
I've definitely seen fish swimming through reflection. It's really soothing for some reason.
Nice I think my first timr. It was neat to see. It was like they were swimming in a tree, hehe.
Wow, what a nice fishpond. If that was in our university Im sure I will visit that every day.
I was telling my son about it and he didn't even knew it existed. He said all his classes are in same building on other side of campus. I'd like my own fishing pond but I'd stock with fishing I could catch and eat, haha
Lovely nature related shadows. All the very best for the contest.
Thank you 😊
That are some great reflections! Nice! Are those some Koi they have in there?
Thanks :-)I believe so maybe some gold fish as well. I know the are of a similar species.
Those gold fish grow well in the wild don't they!
so there are koi fish there as well? I thought only Chinese people love them hehe
Yup there at a lot of places that have them here. Been here for quite some time as I remember them as a kid.
Nice reflections! I see your weekend is being nice and relaxing 😌 good!

Very nice pond to have a relaxing time just watching the surrounding nature. This campus is really lovely and special. You caught some nice reflections unintentionally. I would have a picnic by the pond!
Yes, a nice little pond that I found pleasure to be around. I would eat lunch there as well or a have a coffee by it in the morning.
Its indeed a neat little fish pond and I'm sure staying there will be a refreshing experience. It's good you're having a nice weekend, may the coming week be even better for you.
Thanks a lot I really needed a good start to it. It was a neat experience as I spent a good 45 minutes there :-)
Beautiful reflection 😍
Thank you 😃

Thank you and you have a great one as well 😀
The first photo is so beautiful. Its cool the campus has this kind of view in there. They can meditate or have a breather there if ever they got a load of stress. Same here, if i'm a student there, I'll just sit in there and enjoy the beautiful view.
It gives off a fresh nature feel. It would be a great place to relax and eat, read or just gaze at .
Probably not wise for me to pull out my fishing pole 😆 😂 Don't want to test campus security and lose my Alumni status. Never ate Koi or gold fish but something tells me there is a reason there pet fish.
Hidden beauty everywhere. You're always good at finding those beauty. All reflections are pretty♥️.
Thank you I try, hehe. Glad you enjoyed and thought they were pretty
!INDEED it was a good decision. Hence, we enjoyed some cool reflections as well :)
