The Barnegat water & sky shots are beautiful! How quickly the day goes past, with all its variety, and you've crafted it so well . . . A fine vicarious experience! Also, I like the way you've positioned the boat just so, within the rainbow -- what great timing! :) Thank you for your vision...

Most interesting to me is the first reflective shot of our adventurous duo. Its somber colors and those of the snag-tree silhouettes contrast effectively with the luxuriance to follow. The state forest sign invites contemplation—some tattered history there! This toad is a handsome...

I really like your iris--what a lovely shade of blue! The green plants are pretty, and they have interesting foliage. I hope someone like pbxbob strolls by and can identify them for us. I'm curious about the toads/frogs too. They're plenty cute, but it always helps to have a name. Thanks...

Thank you, all. Let us long remember. Glo

Thank you, Guy and Bob, for introducing me to this pretty little plant. The growth habit is unusual and attractive too. I think the graceful Latin Arenaria caroliniana, suits it well. A Pine Barrens Odyssey (my thanks to you, Mr. Boyd!) adds useful tidbits of information. Glo

Guy, what are the white and green flowers? Mt. Laurel shot is very interesting. Glo

What a stunning series, Whip! To start with, you can tell he's paused to compose another wonk-verse for his song. Of course he has to turn a cold shoulder so he can think--don't take it personally. Finally he's ready, his throat beginning to swell with new ardor, . . . and his song, his...

Beautiful bladderwort vistas! I had to go look them up--to see a single flower--and was surprised to find that they're carnivorous. Our laurels have finished blooming, one of my favorites, so it's nice to see the cheerful faces on yours. And I especially like the dewberry shot--the way you...

Love those grays, Whip! I've heard them call but have never ever seen a real one (Elliott's don't count). The way the second one has narrowed his eyes, I can almost hear him mumbling, "Can't ya give a guy some privacy?" It must have been quite an experience to be there with hundreds of them...

I like your spider, Guy; he's impressive against that golden background. And the frogs! I'm glad you found some pbtf's--they're so tiny, so beautiful, and so hard to spot. Sounds as if y'all are having a wonkin' good spring after all. Glo

Well put, Jeff. This scene--a drama in miniature--is beautiful and thought-provoking. Glo

Thank you. I know what you mean: sitting here in my study, I sometimes wonder whether such an enchanting place really exists. Then the photos do their job of resurrecting memories, and I am reassured. :) Glo

Very interesting sequence! Thank you. Glo

Thanks, y'all. A helpful discussion. Glo

No! I hate to see this happen. Those homeowners have tried to hang on for so long . . . and it's a beautiful spot. Glo

Nice lady slipper shots, especially the close-ups! I checked just before I left and found only one; are there several there now? Remember how we were looking for others around Goose Pond? I read that they like "rich woods" so perhaps in that area the soil was too thin. That monument is an...

How common is it for a rattlesnake to bite before rattling? Anyone hear of that happening in the barrens? Glo

Thank you! In answer to your questions, T: approximately 350 photos, many of which are videos, most useful for research. About the poem: I tend to compose such laments on the long drive home. I also tend to miss exits while doing so--not a good idea. :) Glo

INFINITE DIVERSITY Ruins, still poignant-- brightened by blooms and studded with hopeful ferns. Rich resources for study: Terry's lovely miniatures: Whip at work. Skit beauties a rain drop Friendship Bogs perhaps a wild...

I’ve always thought (am I prejudiced? Nah!) that the pbtfs have a particularly meditative look about them, and you’ve caught that so well. Seems your leopard is having second thoughts about appearing on the Forum—hence his oh-but-I’m-invisible expression. Or maybe he’s a trifle camera shy...
