Don't Be Koi

Suz Lipman over at SlowFamilyOnline started her Photo Friday last week. She says:

"Photography is a wonderful activity for the “slow.” When I find myself wandering around with a camera (which is most of the time), I tend to look up and around more than usual, seeking those things which are just out of the ordinary. Senses are heightened, connections are made."

I couldn't agree more.

I made NO touch-ups or edits to this photo. This appears just how I saw it! Can you guess the location?
