Five Rivers; Delmar, NY

This was taken on a morning walk I took with a photographer friend at Five Rivers Environmental Education Center in Delmar, NY. I am not a big fan of taking pictures in places like these as I would much rather be out in the wild looking for what I deem to be more natural beauty. I was suprised when I got home and started editing the photos from the day, however. There was much beauty to be captured there, without the paved driveways and benches that were in some areas. This was taken from the road that you would drive in on, looking out to the "turtle bridge".

If you go, go later in the day. Thats when the turtles come out. And it you spit over the edge of the bridge into the water, the turtles will all come over to see what your spit is. I went too early and missed this whole phenomenon. (Yuck).
