Thanks, everyone. I passed 4 guys fishing in a 4-inch-deep stream (before these recent rains) on the beginning of my hike. As I passed them on my way out, one asked, "Get anything." "Yeah, a leaf," I replied. "Me, too," the funniest one yelled.We're starting our long weekend tomorrow. Be good until we get back. #8949025

Awesome capture of light on your subject, Marty...superbly done! #8950468Mitch Spence October 06, 2010
I didn't identify at all your use of the Fractalius, but whatever you did with it and with the exposure of this shot made me look and look, following the path of the shadows and the segue of the colors. Lovely stuff. #8951570JO ANN CLEVELAND October 10, 2010
