Nicely done Dennis. The timing of the waves, the angle of the fishing pole and the clouds behind make this a very interesting image. #1450893

Hope you've been well, Dennis. I hadn't seen any posts from you in ages, and now your descriptions seem so abridged! #10047603

Merry be MICHELLE, DAVID & CARLA!!!

Good to see you brave the winterwather and come to the beach to check out the scenery.

Three truck loads of warm Aussie thanks for your collective feedback. Most encouraging.

Carla: Tch! Tch! Way up top in my camera information is says in part, "...High resolution jpg in B&W..." This harks back to my early days and my experimentation in shooting in B&W with filters.
