Thanks for commenting on Pink Petals. I too think it should have a little more sharpness, but I couldn't change that (I took the photo about a year ago). I really had fun editing that pic.

And I was sure that you had edited it to blueish color :). Now it really is weird! Very nice I might say. Oh, and thanks for your words on "Spider on the Terrace"! :)

Thanks for your comments on Ground Zero. Your opinion is important to me. What a difference the right image processor makes.

Thanks. I posted this as a reminder of a time when our country was appreciated of its efforts rather than vilified for its accomplishments. The moon shot was another time when we beat a sword into a plowshare.

Thanks, Dave. Maine and the sea were in harmony that day.

You are most welcome. This turned out to be day that I realized I should have lugged the EOS. Mama-san wanted to shop for Poland's famous leaded crystal. Being the pack mule....

The city has influences from Genghis Khan through the Polish-Ukrainian Empire as well as more modern influences of eastern and western Europe. Even in the Soviet bloc years, Poland was always neat and clean, taking pains to preserve their heritage. There's almost 11 centuries of architecture there.

The town market is about a mile long. The southern end has some serious lighting issues at the time of day we were there as well a mob of street vendors.

Thanks for dropping by.

Thanks, Dave. God has a magical paintbrush and a huge canvas. It was pleasure to drive for miles of scenery similar to this.

Thank you, Dave. I remember leaving the point to drive back down East Rim Drive to get this shot because the sun was so low. If you get the chance to take a photo from Mathers Point, I'd advise waiting until after 10am.

The comment on "Lone and little house" is appreciated,thanks for the visit.

Hi, Dave. Thanks for dropping by.

I tried to coax him into a profile, but he had a mind of his own. The high for today was about 60. The cool temperature greatly reduced his metabolism. This is the first time I have photographed one less than a foot away. As he warmed up, he got hyper and hid in the parsley. I haven't checked on his whereabouts. Just so he doesn't get to the lemon tree.

They are notorious for taking a bite out of a young citrus fruit, then move on to another, leaving a marred fruit behind.

I almost wish that he could talk. Notices that he has no hind feet. Whether he left them in his pupa at emergence or lost them some other way is a mystery.

The comment on "Coast and sea (2)" was really appreciated,thanks much.

Thanks for commenting on "Creamy and yellow tulip",very nice of you.

Thanks for the nice comment on "Tulips (3)",very much appreciated.

Many thanks for your valuable comment on "New Beginnings 1.2", Dave. Fortunately, I can bring this one into the greenhouse to photo. I have others that are in full bloom, but the winds have made it hard to get a crisp image. La Niña has brought a wet and windy spring to Texas.

Thanks very much for the nice words on "Still sunset".

The comment on "River near a forest" was really appreciated,thank you very much.

Thank you very much for the nice comment on "Sunset and a veil of clouds".

I like the one you thought of too. Thank you.

I was a rainy day in London, Thursday and the light level was very low.

Thanks for visiting "Rhododendrun Wallichii", Dave. It was a very windy day, forcing me to give up a little dof. I don't recall ever seeing so many varieties of Rhododendrun in one place.

Hi Dave, Thanks for the very kind one on "The Rising"

Thank you Dave for leaving a nice comment on "Orange Rose",it's very nice of you.

Thanks for your comment on "Brilliant Red Hybrid", Dave. I never saw so many different rhododendrons in one place before, so I got carried away a little....

"Swans a Swimming"
Thank you Dave.

Many thanks for you comment on "Newcastle Riverfront", Dave. I guess it shows that old Europe is not so old. Just like the young upstart across the pond, she's alway changing.

Hey Dave, so glad you enjoyed "Blues and Greens" sandi♥

Thanks, Dave. The Chester site site is amazing. I'm not too sure that grass would do well in Tennessee. England is at least 10 degrees further north, making it quite a bit cooler climate. Their grasses remind me of the stuff I saw in Ontario.

Thanks for the wonderful comment on "Wings Of A Dragon" and "Busy Bee" I do appreciate it Dave.
