The last series of POD's have been outstanding.
I find it both fascinating and more than a little frustrating when someone takes a picture of something that many can see, but few can make magic Cool



Well said.  Artists easily see art around them and recreate it in their own image.  The rest of us look on in wonder at their skill and wish that it were ours.

Yeah, some of you have other talents, like good fishing abilities; as noted in your avitar Snow-Dog. (Who will help me eat the fish, said The Little Red Hen)  Smiley  Last time I went fishing I cast my rod, hook, line and sinker overboard never to be seen again.  If anyone finds them, please let me know.  We all have are special talents and all can work as a team to have a successful trip. Wink

(I notice the date on the quote is from Dec 31st, 1969.  It's about time that I got back and commented on this statement.  I was a Sophomore in high school, but this year is my 40th reunion. Smiley)

Sincerely,

starwatcher

It looks like a closeup of birch bark.  Definitely warm colors against cool.

Overcast on that day, and then there was the shade from the camera. The clump yelled "hey you!" on the first trip by! Wink

Smiley Looks good!  Almost psychedelic.  If you rotate it 90 degrees it looks like the ending of 2001 Space Odyssey.  Wink

Nice loon pair in today's photo.
