You only get one sunrise and one sunset a day, and you only get so many days on the planet. A good photographer does the math and doesn't waste either. - Galen Rowell
Cindy, to me this is a beautiful post. The 'golden' leaves against a perfect blue background are wonderful. See the C-index is only 37 by now. Would have been better, but that's not up to me. Perhaps the voters have a better eye for photography than I have.
