Hey, I know you're a talented photographer, but now I see you have leanings toward poetry too, Laura! ;-D Fantastic find well captured! #7928840Ann Coates September 09, 2009

I am always thrilled to check in on your gallery to see what surprise you have for me. Love this shot, must be a gorgious campground. #7929690Tammy Espino September 09, 2009
Gorgeous reflections!!! Thanks mother nature :) #7930076Laura E. Swan September 09, 2009
Oh LOOK Mr, TARP!!! All of our friends are showing up to read our poem!!!Hi Mumj, Monnie, Ann, Ron, Mr.Tree and Tammy-girl! :)
You guys are so fun. Huge smiles here for each comment made. Thank you so very much!
Ron, this will be you. Soon enough. :)
This really was a VERY SPECIAL Sunny September Morning. I'll post another reflection or two from that morning soon. It was cold out but so worth it.
I felt SO ALIVE! There is something about the Mtn fresh air and high elevation. Even my HOME is at about 2400 feet! :)
Hey Mumj, you are doing songs lately for your images and maybe my next one should be called "September Morning" in honor of your new style???!!!
I thank the snow and the -rain- and the wind and the stars almost every time I experience them.
Nice to hear you guys feel the same!
Thaks all!

8o) just think, if it froze you could go ice skating? I really like this image, and your special eye for the unusual shots! 8o) #7930587Laura E. Swan September 10, 2009
You're a sweetie Stefania. Thanks so much!* * *
Mumj...you are so funny! I think Pokey and Gumby could skate on the tarp. Lot's of RINK ROOM there for THEM! HAHAHAHA! Hey...I'm getting ideas!!! Winter is coming and they look a little bored right now...!!! (SMILE!)
Nice to see you here ladies! -Laura :) #7930618

Good to see you lot are out using that RV again. A good photographer can see beauty in just about anything, you certainly prove that. I should have taken more pictures when our caravan flooded after a water pipe split & we came home to find Kody sitting on top of the fridge. Great idea here=^..^= #7931054Laura E. Swan September 10, 2009
Well, THAT wasn't a happy little story but it WOULD have made fantastic pictures.My lesson has been to, "BRING THE CAMERA EVERYWHERE I GO..."
I don't miss much now unless I can't get the camera turned on fast enough to set it up and shoot!
Thanks for your visit and kindness, Chris!!! :)

Hi Annette, Ellen and Little Sister Laura :D Thank you all very much. Since this month's theme is reflections I thought this one might be a good candidate!! #11466408Laura E. Swan May 01, 2016
Dear BPers, Our Ellen Hodges passed away one day after leaving this comment above. She died suddenly and apparently no one saw it coming. Life is fragile. Embrace it. Live it. Love everyone around you and forgive anyone that has ever hurt you. Time is precious. And so are you. #11468419Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
