Thanks Paul Frank Dave Walt Christine Dan, Brian and Bob S for your comments. Bob, yes the leaning tree is a birch. That scene grabs me every time I walk by, I've avoided photos of it before because of the fence in the background. Then realized that I was in a park, not a wilderness someplace, and the fence is a "natural" part of this environment. Brian, if you look closely at the rear portion of of the body of the dark butterfly in #9, with the white spots, you'll see that this guy has a Happy Face bumper sticker. I didn't notice it at the time . . . stan -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
