I am fairly new my self, But Welcome aboard. We have had our ponds about 8-9 years, only been a member since Feb.
I too like to scout around and look at pics of ponds and gather info about growing different things. So I will say the same as someone said to me " pull up a chair get comfortable and enjoy"
It would be hard for me to go natural with a pond, as there would be no shade , untill I was able to purchase some floating plants later in the spring. None of those survive the winter here. The lilies come up a little late, to cover the surface. So I would just end up with green water. and wouldn't be able to see the fish.
So whatever works. Lots of good cover , looks nice enjoy.
