The Koi

Last week, I featured the views of the pond where these koi fishes resided during warm weather, but the fishes were not visible. This week, you can actually see the residents of the pond.


With an eye made quiet by the power of harmony, and the deep power of joy, we see into the life of things.
~William Wordsworth


We need quiet time to examine our lives openly and honestly - spending quiet time alone gives your mind an opportunity to renew itself and create order.
~Susan Taylor

I had a Koi pond at the restaurants. I was said to leave them when we sold the restaurants 2 years ago.

Those are some good sized fish!
At first I thought the greenery was in the water.
Nicely done!

Your koi carps seem to fly among the trees.. Very poetic!

I love the atmosphere of these photos. They are both great shots, but I like the second one a wee bit more.

Fish swimming in trees raised a grin. I am always astounded by the sheer size of koi.
