Life's around said Phil the 35 millimetre cameraman. I recently went to the doctors, and said I've got icon fever, but he told me there was no cure for the disease. Flossies gallery's here

I'm going to stick my neck out and say this is excellent shot. The reflection makes is twice as good. Colors, clarity they're all there. Tremundo!!

Well, this is a great time of the year for getting reflections with our star shining in the sky at just the right angle..doesn't hurt on the richness of the colors either!

I had painted turtle 2 in voting and like it so much I had to see the first one. Also a beautiful capture. The reflections and details are wonderful. Very nice shot.
