Thanks, Rick.

I agree.  I like this one better as an abstract;  I like the Santa Fe image
better as a visualization of a wonderful place.

Thanks for looking, Rick.

About the sky, this is the wet side of the West Maui Mountains, and it
almost always is overcast, if not actually raining  Just beyond the needle
is Pu'u Kukui, which receives more than 300 inches of rain a year.  As to
the Size and context, see:

GESO: View from my window

I woke up this morning to noises from the street.
I looked out of my window and saw this:

http://www.panix.com/~johnf/temp/Crane1.jpg

Apparentl PG were replacing some of the wiring in our neighbourhood.
Here's a slightly different view which gives a better perspective:

Dan, this would appeal to me more if it had context or scale, such as a

You also forgot to arrange for the beautiful blue sky. Tsk.

Kuka‘emoku (a.k.a. the ʻIao Needle), is an erosional feature which abruptly
rises 1200 feet from the valley floor. This valley is rich in cultural and
spiritual values and is the site of the battle of Kepaniwai where the
forces of Kamehameha I conquered the Maui army in 1790, leading to the
creation ofn the Kingdom of Hawai'i.

If you zoom in you could spot the bird as a spot and while doing so
notice the lens more or less sucks at 28mm. You can't have everything
