I am probably afraid that some spectator will not understand my photography - therefore I proceed to make it really less understandable by writing defensibly about it. Ansel Adams

A splendid shot, Chris! The clarity is amazing, almost like being right there within touching distance.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Thank you all for your comments. I apologize that I wasn't able to thank each of you personally for taking the time to view and comment on this post. Time is pressing me at the moment, and though I will still post comment as I'm able, each will be sporadic for the next month or so...thanks again, my friends!
