You usually can't see the woods through the trees (or something like that) and here is another one of your beautiful pictures.

I keep forgetting to thank you for those e-mails, so thank you for those e-mails. You are really lovely.

That shot would make an interesting acrylic - combination of abstract and detail. Found a crude way of producing a photo marker outside of a sophisticated watermark program.

Copy the shot into Paint, select the 'clear' alphabet option for script,type on info, and then save it as Jpeg (not bitmap)?

This is painterly, David.

Churches certainly do bring their style with them!

virtual nexus said...

Challenge?? Sounds interesting...

Diva's Thoughts said...

Wow!!! That is fantastic.

My husband is the historian for our yacht club and he likes how you have the bush out of focus and the building in focus. Very well done as always David. Have a great WW. :)

San said...

I love the way the tree to the right of the spire is the shape of the spire but inverted. What a painterly eye is yours, David.

TR Ryan said...

Fantastic shot and perspective. You must see the world with your eyes wide-open.
