I like this picture; it makes me wonder where the path leads, and I really like the textures.

Wow, that took all of 9 seconds to display. ]'-) It's a wonderful shot ... even if it *is* a cormorant.

One of the things I love about photography is that we all see different things even in the same subject matter. I've only the barest notion of what to do about shooting birds and wildlife. I look at those photos and am often delighted by that which is different from my own work, 'refreshing' to the eye as you put it, even if the subject matter isn't something that I spend a lot of time pursuing myself. best, Godfrey -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

And here I just got home from my children's play practice. And what was it...Wizard of Oz...about the last thing they rehearsed was 'Follow the Yellow Brick Road' - just needs some outlandish color and it would pass for it. I rather like it.
