All clouds have a silver lining, Jeff, and you did a great job with this one! Terrific full-frame texture composition. The Celery Bog was this bad, but only in certain places - have not been out there in the last month - we've had a lot of rain so hopefully, some of it has bounced back a bit. #10361401
