Madison river, the water!
As much time as I spent observing every detail I could of the view of the Madison river (see yesterday's post), I spend almost as much time looking at the water itself.
Such clarity, such beauty! Mountain rivers are the best, and a source of fascination for me as I typically only get to see muddy, silt-filled water so many miles downriver from here.
I just had to get a little artsy again -- I hope you don't mind.
The way the water moved and caught the light and rippled and distorted the underwater rocks and greenery, well, I could have watched it for hours. Even if it didn't make that wonderful small river sound I would have been happy. But it did, and I was in heaven!
It's a good thing I didn't see any fish in the water, or I may have stayed here all day!
I took video too, but it can't capture the many "faces" of the water like these still photos can. So wonderful!

Beautiful photographs
I like the close up of the rocks on the shore. The colors in all of them are great for water study.
