Unintended Consequences - The hot and dry Summer has sadly transformed parts of the landscape into a artistic pallet of texture... We are looking forward to some Autumn and Winter rain.

Thank You! Jeff #10360029Rona L. Schwarz October 08, 2012
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. #10361401Jeff Robinson October 09, 2012
