Also, please let me take this opportunity to welcome you to Caedes. I hope you enjoy your stay with us by visiting the very talented artists that make this their home.
Thanks again Lisa, this time for your comments on "Old Fence". The old wood grain is what drew me to the fence in the first place. Then I noticed all of the rich colors, shapes and angles.
I'm glad you liked it.
Rain Drop Pussy Willow 2 is another capture of this years Pussy Willow Buds. This was taken in the rain holding an umbrella in one hand and the camera in the other. Thanks Lisa for viewing and commenting on this image.

Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

Lisa thanks for your comments on "Standing Alone". I agree that the image has kind of a lonely feeling to it, but it is also an image of strength and perseverance. If you can see the trees in the background: they are all dead. One of the great wildfires that raged through Yellowstone burned them all, leaving this one alive. It's an interesting story so for me it is one of life over death.
Also, please let me take this opportunity to welcome you to Caedes. I hope you enjoy your stay with us by visiting the very talented artists that make this their home.
