An evening walk along this incredibly clear stream, full of smooth rounded multicolor stones, and me trying to find some way to photograph them without my own shadow appearing as a reflection in the water. Trying, and failing so many times it became pretty funny -- making pictures of everything but the stones, because I couldn't find a shadowed spot where the water surface allowed a view below, rather than reflecting what was above. The harder I tried, the fewer stones appeared in the frame, and it was quite amusing after awhile. At least to me. But then I don't get out much and spend a lot of time either alone or with my children, whose senses of humor run to using the word "butt" whenever possible, so possibly my standards of humor are pretty low.
Sometimes you get the stones, sometimes you get the sky.
