Description So, my entry of today for World Watercolour month 2017...
... with yesterday's prompt, because yesterday I was too tired but I liked that prompt better than today's

I've always liked to visit one of those swampy forests with bike tracks (I think there are a lot of them in Northern Europe?) I hope one day I'll be able to see one!
But obviously this is a bit idealistic and I haven't looked up any reference. They'd have to tear down the forest to make such a large boardwalk, probably XD

Wow, this is really nice--it reminds me of my visit to the Everglades in Florida. Although I didn't see anyone riding their bike, the scene captures the same marshy wetland scenery, and the colors used here are lively

Wow, I've never seen the likes of them. Azure swamp has an almost surreal quality.

Well, I'm not sure if some swamp of this colour actually exists... maybe with the help of the right light...
But it does feel surreal, indeed ^^

I wonder what ignis fatuus would be line on such bike tracks.

I see what you mean... it would be even more suggestive for sure.

Do they allow people to ride their bikes on the boardwalk?

Yup! There are places where they build these boardwalks specifically to be used as bicycle lanes through the forests ^^

That's neat. Looks like it'll have some tight traffic among those boardwalks.
