Reflections of youth
Auburn, Pennsylvania, Lake Wynonah.
When I was much younger my grandmother would tell us stories of her youth. She would refer to them as her colorful years as compared to her then grey years of life. She was happy and healthy in her grey years; she just loved to reminisce about young friends, dances and the soda fountain where they congregated. This image represents the grey years of life in the wooded area and the colorful reminiscent years in the waters reflection. Hope you like it.

David, Fantastic job at breaking down the two different colors, the black and white on the banks of the water to reflect your grandmother's grey years and the colorful reflections in the water to reflect your grandmother's earlier years. Great story followed up by a great matching photo. Your colors are nice and crisp and the photo makes you feel like you are sitting right there. Excellent job David. VOTED
