Love the effects, Alfie's cool pants, the incredible colors. The bridge shot grabs me with its wonderful textured greens. The last one is classic Alfie, worthy of framing. Next one up: priceless for composition and a luminous sense of place. The eye is drawn to that lovely tree . . . Photos...

Sure is a great thread. Nice shots and many contributors. Thanks, oji, for keeping it up. Educational! Especially about "weeds." :) "What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered." ~ Emerson, Fortune of the Republic, 1878 Glo

Nice, oji! Glo

Thanks, Jeff. They certainly are appealing little critters. Glo

My 94-year-old father-in-law, who seldom speaks, told me last night: "The Phillies are in first place." He even smiled. He follows all their games. Atlantic City born and bred, he's a forever-fan. Go Phils! Glo

You say it well, George. Bob has an eye for the telling detail, doesn't he? Good thing he shares! Glo

Great photos and videos. (So photogenic, Al!) Ruined remains like that always make me wonder about the bits of story that go with them. Looks like a beautiful swamp. You two are impressive stone sleuths! Glo

Thanks, Bob. I know where to find them. :) Glo

Thanks for the meal info. But about the rest, you're kidding? I've seen black snakes hanging from trees, but green snakes live there? Why the adjective "rough?" Same snake as Ed's? Sorry, Jeff. You'd be amazed at what I don't know. :) Glo

Bob, I'm enjoying your "little things." Could you identify them? (Got the box turtle okay. :) So tiny!) I really like the way you presented the soon-to-be-blooming buds . . . Looking forward to seeing your photos, Guy! Glo

Thanks for the trip, Mark. I like your turtle too. Hoping someone has an idea about the holes in his shell. Glo

Sand art is kind of . . . inspiring. :mrgreen: Glo

Jeff, that classic nighthawk pose would be a great cover for another album . . . more of your guitar/lute classics? Glo

What a beautiful river, Whip, with such a melodious name. Might it be a Lenapi word? I like the dream-like quality of the interpreted photos and the insights they provide. They lend themselves to reverie. Glo

Thanks for this info. Such a beautiful color! Glo

I'm sorry to hear this, Guy. It looked as if y'all gave them a good start. Let's see what Legendary Bob says. Glo

Absolutely love it, Jerseyman! And your charismatic snake too, Ed. Have to ask: does it eat frogs? Might it live around the Friendship bogs? Glo

You've got an eye for interesting shots, Ed. Of course, the flowering plants (how about that lily pad leaf!), but especially the bug. I think his eyes are marvelous, whether they're fake or not. Glo ________ What can dim his hope who sees, Though faintly and afar, The power that kindles...

So many lovely shots, Bob: the verdant "barrens," the magnificent nighthawk set against a changing sky, and that remarkable burned-out heaven-lit stump . . . but it was the delicate beauty of the carex that grabbed me tonight. "Bloom where you're planted" may be trite, but it's a good...
