Terrific Marty, never met any of them other on cyberspace. So this is a similar appearance. Hmmm.

Terrific saturation in this one Marty, well done indeed #1333622

For me my friend, the black and white and the tones and textures make this a standout. Love the play of light and shadow and the lines of both the picket fence and the lines in the leaves of the plant give it a most beautiful look. I also enjoy the lighting coming in from the ride side. A work of beauty for my favorites my friend. Outstanding. #9086093

Nice capture and presentation. I can see where you have Frank, Monie and Maria in mind here.

Thanks for your thoughts on the flower in snow pic. I changed the title based on your comments - Thanks. #9086094

Oh,Marty you have found my dark side,haven't you??LOL..
Could it be that I live about 1:20 min from Mystic,CT. or because I love close-up Photography..
