Retrospective (7/5/2016)
Patch #181 Through the looking glass
Original Post
When colors seem otherworldly and even the camera can't mess them up.
We're fortunate to live near the headwaters of the San Marcos River, where Texas State University runs glass-bottom boats ...
the better to show the wonders of the natural springs ...
Fish and turtles swim below ...
and limestone sand bubbles like Cream of Wheat as the crystal clear water flows out of the Edwards Aquifer ...
thirty feet below the boat.
It's really quite amazing ...
and not a bad way to spend part of a summer's day ...
especially if it's topped off by lunch at Torchy's Tacos ...
That water…an amazing blue.
ReplyDeleteIn the past we've always managed to go on a cloudy day ... I was in awe of the colors brought out by the sun
