Task # 24 - The Pond in Winter

I always forget the journaling! It says:

I don't see my goldfish much in the winter. The cold, gray days keep me indoors and the fish stay in the warmer water at the bottom of the pond. On the occasional sunny day, the fish will swim near the surface, nibbling at algae. Today, I was pleasantly surprised to see fish that I haven't seen in months. Some of them, I didn't even recognize. My previously bronze fantails have turned black, and one of my black orandas is turning orange. The calico fantails were the most photogenic of the group today. One tiny calico was very brazen, which makes me worry a little for it's safety. There's not much cover in the pond this time of year. Spring will be here soon, and the fish and I will be so glad.

So beautiful I love the colours of orange and blue, the fish are glowing!

Lovely photos and colors. I enjoyed your journaling. Pretty layout.

Wow! Amazing job with the photos! I'm impressed. I love the way you've made this layout. I like the simple, almost Asian feel. I love the colors and the branch, and especially the pine cone by your date. Lovely!

Wow! What fantastic photography, and a lovely layout! I love the way you've paired the center photo with the koi stamped paper. The stitched stripes over the layered background are fantastic. A real eye-catcher! (And I'm insanely jealous of your lovely pond, btw!!! )

What a fantastic page. I love the colors and how you used the paper. I find it easier to get photos of our koi in the winter because they're so much slower.

A beautiful page. I love your compositions and the use of the Koi paper with your photos is stunning.

Beautiful page! I love the journaling and photos. The paper you paired with your pictures looks marvelous!
