Weekend Reflection: on the way to the estuary

This is part of the tidal channel that brings water to Lake Merritt from the estuary.  There's a nice little park with a couple of public sculptures along side the channel.  In the background is the Nimitz freeway that this channel runs under to reach the estuary.  Another view was posted a while back.  This was taken before the week of rains came.  For other reflections, visit James' meme, Weekend Reflections.

    Beautiful and cozy!! It seems that for people, it provides a refreshing haven for strolling. I suppose this is your favorite one to visit. Thank you for visiting. Have a great weekend!

    Reflections, sharp and bright, put in the shade, so to speak, an otherwise eye-pleasing green patch.

    This is a pretty spot. I particularly lilke the rusted steel sculpture. It looks like it is on its side, resting, which any reasonable sculpture at this location would be doing.

    What a nice contrast to the freeway is this estuary, complete with a flowing art representation... Even better that all of this is reflected in the water.

    Very nice scene and reflection!

    Somehow even more serene in the midst of all the change going on in your city
