Thanks Russ for comments and suggestions on Lofty Goals. They are much appreciated. I'll keep that in mind about the fill flash option. The poles I left in intentionally because they're entrance to corral. Perhaps I should have cropped them out but I liked the look. Have a good day and thanks again for your candor.
Thanks Russ for your kind comment on 'Breakthrough in 1922'!
I don't know whether this stone was replaced in 1922, maybe a leftover damage of WWI, or like NL said it's just a kind of graffiti.
Thanks Russ for very nice comments on Woodrow. I like to think there are still people like that. Maybe they're just harder to find. Have a nice evening.
You asked where my upload PLUMES was taken and it was on Canon Mountain in Franconia Notch, NH. I took a number of them, and even though this one wasn't the best, I thought it might have some dramatic appeal.

Hello Russ, I do appreciate your comment on my photo I posted today, "Bright Red Cardinal" The sun was out this morning for the first time in awhile, and I have been posting so much from my trash bin, It was a blessing to get a new photo to post. I think it is one of my best bird photos in awhile. I am proud of it.
That's a shame about those plums. They are a little sensitive. People try to cultivate them and they just don't react well. Left alone, they seem to go on for 25 or 30 years. One old-timer used to saw up fallen trunks and limbs in long diagonals and make plaques from them. The wood is so rich and fine-grained. A little lacquer and they are beautiful beyond words. Thanks for dropping by.
Thanks for your comments and i went through your gallery as well...you have excellent images...hope you dont mind another friend being added to your list :-)
Hi Russ, how are you?...glad to hear that like myself you enjoy the old photos...I'll try to post more sometime...meantime, thanks for stopping in on Winter 1929.
Thank you so much Russ, for commenting on my "Tufted Titmouse" photo. I never thought it would get such a high c-index. I am pleased that you enjoy my bird photos. Can't wait for the Hummingbirds to show up.
Thanks Russ for the comments on my picture “Portrait of a Squirrel” It was a little early for a good photo outing but I was anxious to try out my new gear.
...........The background look a bit odd. Did you modify it some?..........))

Yes I did, Russ!
Thanks, for your nice comment on "Around the Farm (Turkish delight" !

Hello Russ....Many thanks for viewing (STONEHENGE UK)and for your comments,they are very much appreciated....Thankyou again Russ....All the best....Mick.
Chatty Cathy is checking in...with a big 'thank you' for your comments on 'Early Morning Grace'... as you know...I really appreciate your nice words you always leave for me to enjoy...
You know how very sorry I am that you were amid all the tornadic activity in the SE...!! And about your purple Iris...pretty sad...but we can 'fix' that...can't we? ;o)
This visit is to thank you for stopping by to lend a hand with the debate going on between two male 'mallards'...if what the suggestions as to what that debate was 'really' all about...then I would not want to be engaged...by offering cheese to them...LOL!! So...no dear...I have no cheese!...your words surely made me chuckle...in fact I laughed heartily!!...very funny!

Hi Russ, how are you? Many thanks for dropping by Something Old Something New...very glad you found it of interest and I appreciate your time and comments...it was very difficult taking photos that day...too many people milling about the streets...we were in their way and they in ours so I was glad it even turned out as well as it did...I too prefer the old architecture...have a great day.
Hi Russ ... Yes, Scooter has a new toy ... I wouldn't mind owning a couple jet ski's myself. Thanks for your kinds words on "Summer Fun 2 (Orig.)" ... glad you enjoyed it. Sherree
Hi again Russ ... Thanks this time for your comments on "Saturday In The Park (Color)". That would be the perfect bench for Owd Bob. Glad you liked it. Sherree
Hey again...thanks for the friend add and, of course, for your comments on my recent posts. On "Autumn Falls 2", I actually was not using a polarizing filter despite the blue cast on the water. I was using an ND filter. I've been meaning to stack the 2 one of these years, but I keep forgetting :)
Thanks for your comments on "Billions and Billions and Billions....", Russ. If you are ever in the area and have a night or two on your hands, give me a shout. I'd be glad to take you up to Oklahoma and let you try your hand. All you need is your own T-ring adapter to use your own camera or you are welcome to use any of my Canons and an old Speed Graphic.

Thanks for commenting on my 3 boats!! The photo was shot on the St. Marys River in Georgia. I work across the street from where this is. Pretty amazing! Thanks Again!

Thanks Russ for your comment on Ascent.
I agree about the carpet not matching - I wrestled with the unmirrored image for ages - miraculously I got the shot perfectly even along the top with the bannisters lined up (I added some extra black space above them) but for the life of me I could not get the lower stair to be straight. Reluctantly I mirrored it.
I really appreciate your interest :)
Thanks Russ for the comment on my "Great Blue Heron" photo. I enjoy the challenge of photographing birds in there natural habitat instead of shooting out the window in my bird studio. I won't be posting many of those anymore. I do need to learn to creep up on them slower.

Thanks for stopping by. I know the warning will not stop all the internet thieves but I do think it will stop quite a few because I feel most people do it out of ignorance. Once informed, perhaps a lot of them will refrain.

Hi Russ! How are you? It seems it's been awhile since our paths have crossed. Hope all is well with you. Thanks so much for your visit and lovely comments on Sleeping Beauty. My daughter is much more photogenic than I but they are very much appreciated and I'll pass them along to my daughter too...have a great weekend.
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

Hi Russ! How are you? How nice to hear from you on Portraiture...my daughter and I both appreciate the nice comments you left for us...on another note, I was sorry to read that you will no longer be posting images...tho' I understand I will miss your wonderful photography and do hope you might make the odd exception once in awhile...also hoping you will remain a part of caedes as I wouldn't like to see another old friend leave...take care and thanks again.
Thank you for your comments on "For your dining and dancing pleasure".
Getting to ride in the Wienermobile must have been a lot of fun for kids.

Hey Russ, thanks for the comment on Books can take you anywhere you want to go...
It's all done with photoshop. Thats actually me, i have a remote for the camera and i just leaned back on my chair, snapped a photo, then removed me and the chair and snapped another photo, cut myself out of the first one and pasted it in the air on the second one. very fun stuff, i think i like photoshop more than taking photos at times... but only at times;) thanks again!

You wrote: "Love the bold color and feel of this image. Photoshop or in camera? Whatever method you used, it worked. Great job. "
I usually do a little Levels, curves and a small amount of sharpening on most of my images. Momma
Russ, how nice to hear from you...it's been some time since our paths last crossed...hope this finds all good in your world...and many thanks for your positive review of Thinking It Over...I well remember your window shots so very pleased this one of mine passed the test with you...hope to see more of you around here...take care and all the best.

Many thanks, Russ, for the nice comment left on Church of the Holy Trinity 1847...much appreciated...as for those hot hazy summer days, I'm with you, I've had enough...we have had the hottest summer ever in Toronto...another hot one today then I think we're finally in for some relief.

You have a very good imagination, Russ !
And that is just the meaning of this kind of photos, (photojournalism)
