For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They [daffodils] flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

The Bliss of Solitude
Uploaded: March 20, 2013
Finalist
Submitted for the PG101 Clouds Theme
I reread Wm Wordsworth's "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" for title inspiration - but since the clouds don't look particularly singular here and it's the tree that does, I settled for this from the last stanza:
For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They [daffodils] flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
You learn by doing. Take your next online photography class.
