One of life’s simple pleasures: On a hot humid day, putting on your bathing suit and easing sloooowly into a chilly pool. Giddy and magical. Abby’s photos of a water reservoir in Portland give that same sense of happy calm.

This won’t succeed as a matter of fact, that’s exactly what I consider.
Oh Jo, thanks for this post! I am so glad you all like the photos…it was all I could do to not jump in!
Happy Weekend :)
These photos truly capture this reservoir of beautiful Washington Park. I have taken pictures from these same spots but my photos have never turned out so lovely.
Love the photographs!
So gorgeous! Love all the summer green.
absolutely divine… we have a lovely pool in Miami called the venetian pool, very green… spring waters in an old quarry/coral… it’s a must stop when you are here in Miami…
beautiful shots!

Couldn’t agree more…giddy and magical:) Thanks for the link! xx
Giddy and magical is right! There is an area in Glenwood Canyon in Colorado called Hanging Lake. The lake is this color, sits right on a mountainside, and then falls straight down the side of the mountain. The trail up to it runs right alongside the mountain stream the runs from the lake. It is one of my favorite places in the world!
She captured the colors so beautifully. I’m more of a pool girl (I like to see what’s under my feet!) but nothing beats laying next to the lake or river in a nice big tree’s shadow with a good book.
“We put together the perfect New York day.”
"It's my dream come true."
You know that phrase, No matter where you go, there you are? I call bullshit.
