My cousin's garden pond. He designs/installs them! I couldn't recreate the rocks on the lake from Mod 4, so I got shots of the rocks in the waterfall of his pond.

 

There is an irony in the picture which I wanted to capture; namely, the strong, still, heavy boulders and tree trunk, contrasted with the gentle, swift waterfall, which somehow equates to a peaceful scene! The water lilies and the Japanese maple frame the right side and center front of the scene. The waterfall is defined by curves in the boulder border, which I think also softens the boulder pattern. The gnome and turtle add whimsy.
