If it weren't for the rocks in its bed, the stream would have no song.

@Jeff: Me, toooooooooooooooooooo. I would love to have a garden pond with a little waterfall just like this one in my backyard. Of course, then I'd never get anything accomplished (in the yard or in the house)!

Absolutely wonderful, Les! I'm particularly fond of that bit in the upper left, where the ripples almost look plaid! :)

@Bookfool: Aw, thanks, Nancy! And I should tell you that you found the bit that I'm fond of, too. Isn't it a cool image?! It does look like plaid!
