Description
A little pond at the back of the forest, with a path leading there where hardly anybody walks. What are its secrets? I think it must have quite a few.Taken near Bilthoven/The Netherlands.

Great you like it so much. I do not know the book, but always like it to inspire peopleΒ΄s imagination with my photography.

Makes me think of the wonderful Donald Sutherland movie 'Don't Look Now'... have you seen it?
The mist adds a certain evil whisper over the water.... made me shiver... and think of that movie... the pond, where the little girl drowned...

Oh, dear, fortunately I did not know the film when I was at that pond. Things like that could have happened there, too.

Quite unreal... Mist adds a lot of athmosphere I wouldn't look down there if I were you, who knows what can be hiding in those waters

Yes, I was very glad that I discovered it. The mist made me roam around a bit.

Intriguing scenery. It seems almost out of place there.

Misty and mysterious. I don't know why, but the idea of being next to this pool on a dark night makes me very nervous.
Lovely shot in any case.

I would not go there in a dark night! You never know! Think of those fairies!

You've got a point there. I bet this is much too near that mossy rock!

Well, that is pretty far away! But those ponds have their own stories!

Your photos got a very interesting clima, so that we had the wish to be there, breath deeply and delight the moment.
