The photo was taken after an ice storm. The Indonesian general probably was shivering. The pond had lotus and yellow water lilies for several years - I cleaned it out recently, because it had become overgrown (the pots with plants tipped over when a neighborhood heron was 'fishing' for my koi and the plants ran amuck in the bottom of the pond. I now just put in goldfish, but he returns whenever they grow to be 'bite size' - about 6" long).

The tree in the photo is an elderly flowering crab in my neighbor's yard. It is really past it's prime and needs to be removed.
