Can't say anything I have not said before or something someone else has not already said. I will just say I like that a lot.<br /><br />I really liked the little chipmunk. I always like those images where you have done away with the depth of field - creates an extremely nice image.<br /><br />Take care and congratulations again on 600!

I hope you enjoy them."<br /><br />I've enjoyed every single one of the photos you've put onto this blog. Every one.<br /><br />"There's not too much to see here."<br /><br />Are you cereal? The texture of the bark, by itself, is magnificent. You capture more in your images than any photographer I can remember. Yours are among the few that I could come back to again and again and not become bored.Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2629654067597010887.post-63155787098237807902012-06-04T11:56:26.595-04:002012-06-04T11:56:26.595-04:00congrats on being prolific in photos/words 600 tim...congrats on being prolific in photos/words 600 times ..Darylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08241795455748298624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2629654067597010887.post-74341294801401431002012-06-04T11:14:05.383-04:002012-06-04T11:14:05.383-04:00Oh, that is such a sweet shot of the squirrel nurs...Oh, that is such a sweet shot of the squirrel nursing, what a wonderful capture!
