I like the peacefulness that the picture projects, of course I just like most pictures that involve water. Those small trees across the way look feathery, almost like they had been painted on a canvass.

Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Those small trees are bamboo groves.

hanks for the added information, Lee. It is such a peaceful and spring like picture...... much enjoyed today, when spring is around the corner but today it is 36F, rainy and very windy!

Lovely......What is the name of that tree?.....I have a friend in the Bahamas who has posted close up photos of the flowers......so amazing....not like anything we have in this hemisphere.....The individual flowers look like fireworks close up, but from a distance, like this photo, they exude tranquility.........Do they have a fragrance?

No. The flowers are not fragrant. We call it the rain tree. In Hawaii, it is known as the monkey pod tree.
