Hi All, Here's my pond and surrounding areas. Rather than futz with resizing the images and degrading them in order to post directly from this server, I have linked the list of images directly from my server. All images are 800px X 600px.

I designed this myself and there are two streams coming off of the falls.
I tried to make the water feature appear as natural to the placement area as possible. This required 25 tons of Oregon Mossy Rock that was then buried whereby only 1/3 of it sticks out of the ground, much like it would if it were parent material.
Yes, I have lined the pool with the same material. A pain in the spring with the string algae but sweet when finally managed.
I am just now getting the water cleared up and I'm using clay treatments for the fish, plants, and water.
Surrounding plants are hosta, irish moss, coleus, ferns, cat tail, etc.. The fishies a very happy and frisky.
It continues to be a work in progress. Enjoy.
