Nice one, Spartan2.  My wife, whose a visual artist, likes to take those crisp clear reflection photos and rotate them.  What you end up with is like a totem pole.  Yours works really well that way.

I never looked at one in that "totem pole" way, I guess that's why I'M not a visual artist.
For me I gauge how good I think one is by NOT being able to tell which way is UP.  Wink Cool

Thanks!  Mrs. Jimbo made today's pic, of course.

In about 3 weeks or so I may well be traipsing that very same path with yet another talented photographer.  Maybe we'll get lucky and get some new shots worth posting.

Happy Fourth of July!

Jimbo   Cool

Today's POD has a lot of interesting elements mixed together. I don't remember another one like it. Smiley

ST,

I won't deny that, over the years, many of my flamingo camps might well be described as... "interesting."

Perhaps the most interesting camp I was party to wasn't even really MY camp.  Rather, it was set up on Suzanette Lake by Yellowbird, Old Salt, Kingfisher & others (I think Intrepid Camper may have joined us there, too) as the primary site for "Jimboree 2006."  Anyway, to keep the number in any one camp under the max of 9, I was camped nearby with an associated group.  When we rounded the peninsula to approach their camp, it was truly a sight to behold... a mostly pink sight!  Pink buoys, pink flags, strands of pink ornaments, pink flamingos everywhere, pink whirl-a-gigs that twisted in the wind, pink presents for everyone (including homemade pink flamingo Northern pike fishing lures), pink goblets, pink blow-up dolls & creatures, pink hats, pink shirts, and, of course, a huge bubbling lava-like vat of pink stew for supper (which, contrary to speculation, did NOT require pink Pepto Bismol afterward).

Now THAT camp was "interesting."

Today's POD reflects a rather tame camp, in comparison.  I believe the pic was taken in late September, not far from Sue Falls, but I could be wrong.

By the way, QJers travelling the northern tier of Quetico lakes from July 14th through 27th this year are welcomed to stop by at any campsite where they see some kind of "interesting" pink sign.  It's most likely my camp, especially if there are two solo canoes nearby.  Also, if you plan to travel the area during that time frame, feel free to shoot me a note and maybe we can plan to hook-up somewhere.

Later,

Jimbo   Cool

Hey Jim, beautiful photo today.  Love the colour and the foreground of high grass gives the eye somewhere to land.

Hey Jimbo - 

You want me to bring this along as a "welcome mat?"
