Pond Stuffs

So this post is all out of season and stuff, but came across these photos organizing the desktop and now here they are. I remember thinking that this pond in Central Park - with some leaves floating on top and others all sunk on the bottom - looked somewhat like something out of Lord of the Rings and like some king of old, or perhaps just a villager, was going to show their spooky face. Or something. What do you want from me?
