Thank you, Merna, Joannie & Wm... I appreciate your wonderful comments SO very much! Being out on the road, I am feeling sort of out of touch and your thoughtful comments are a bit of home to me ... thanks again. :)) JudyAnn #8749071

JudyAnn, I just saved this in my faves, which I rarely do.
The sculpture's such an extraordinary find, and your well-composed capture of it is superb.

Please forgive my very belated THANK YOU to each and every one of you for your wonderful support! I have been quite ill and was not able to do much of anything for quite awhile... now I am gradually beginning to catch up!!

Mary K. Robison September 17, 2010

Sorry to hear you've been ill, JudyAnn. I hope you're feeling much better now.

And I still love your finalist! #8911665

JudyAnn Rector level-classic September 21, 2010

Thank you very much, Mary... yes, I am much better now, but still quite restricted as to what and how much I can do. At least I am again able to work on 'puter and photos again to help keep me occupied! I sure look forward to that day when I can take off and do some behind the camera work again! *:)) JudyAnn #8921870

Emile Abbott level-deluxe June 07, 2012

I have never seen this before JudyAnn. Where about on the Mission Trail in San Antonio. Awesome eye and loved the treatment of the capture. Congrats on your finalist in 2010 on this image. #10171835

JudyAnn Rector level-classic October 15, 2012

Hi, Emile and THANK YOU for your comments on my hay guy! I am not positive about its location, but I think it was out by the mission farthest from San Antonio... maybe you would say the end of the trail? lol There were 3 of these guys out in a field and entered another image of these guys in the 3/12 'Green with Envy' MT titled "He's my idol". I had to combine two images for that one because, in reality, they were too far apart for what I wanted! Thanks again! JudyAnn *:)) #10370734

Hey, thanks, Gary, and you may be right... at least I have never seen anything like it before or since! *:))
