Oh yuk... Apt title - what gave you the 'inspiration' to take this shot?! It evokes emotions....

@Bronnie: In a word - DROUGHT! The natural wetlands around here have dried up, leaving sights like this.

Helen from Melbourne, Australia

What gorgeous scum! Very interesting, the reflections make it and the colours are just divine.

@Helen: That blue-grey color is the sky - it darkened as if a thunder storm was imminent - and just as quickly dissipated - still no rain here ...

Pero from Kyoto, Japan

You've shown is this shot that even scum can be beautiful

@Francis: yes, there's scum and then there's scum, I suppose.
