  It was one of those simple spots of beauty that just had to be photographed!

  Thanks! Listening to the sounds of silence is one of my favorite things to do…especially in places such as this!

  I took this shot some 20 years ago on one of my walks in the woods of Connecticut up around the Farmington area and to be honest, don’t recall the exact spot. I do know, however, that it is one of my favorite images in my photo archives and this blog gave me a perfect way to share its peace and tranquility! So glad you enjoyed it!
