Apparently this is the entrance to the old swimming hole
The sign reads: French: Baignade = English: bathe, swim, bathing place
And yes, the sign and boat are under water

Beautiful, Les! #892998Nikki McDonald April 04, 2008
Lovely light and colors and the natural ripple effects created by the boat's being under the water are very cool. Composition is just right with the subtle diagonals of the lines of the boat and the bank and water leading us into the image very nicely. #5741721Michelle Alton April 04, 2008
