Path of Sunbeams! Reminds me to look for it every day.
A plethora of beauties! They depict summer in so many different ways and only make me sad to see it leave. Orange cart is the one that I quickly choose.
I really like “Tunnel to Heaven”. It almost looks like a vintage print or painting. All beautiful shots. Such talent 🙂
Loved the tunnel to heaven… really pretty picture
I like Morning fog! Inspiring
Wow. What a great collection. Very tough choice – Water Lilies, Tunnel to Heaven, Orange Cart, all beautiful. But I’ll go with Spider’s Web; the cactus reminds me of my Southwestern roots. Bonus: my housekeeper picked Path of Sunbeams.
Water Lilies
Orange cart rules! Can you please email me the bee! Awesome too. I am thinking of getting 2 hives in the spring! jtturick@hotmail.com
“Water Lilies” – the coloring, composition, and vignetting are stunning. Definitely a keeper for your coffee table book.
Tunnel to Heaven, which reminds me of the Wizard of Oz. And Tree Limb, which may possibly be what you say after you have passed through the tunnel.
They’re all wonderful! But my pick is Water Lilies.
beauty among the concrete jungle…proving that you never know where you’ll see it.
Goodness, they are all very stunning! : )
I do love the water lilies shot but I find the two black and white tree shots magical.
I vote Tree Limb. : )
Thank you for the morning beauty.
It’s not fair to only pick 1, 2 or 3, they’re all magical and special. If you don’t mind me saying, you make the viewer feel like they were right along side of you, seeing what you see as you pressed the shutter.
OK, Ok, Ok, I’ve given up, succumbed to selecting favorite(s), Water Lilies and Spider Web! Thanks for allowing us to live vicariously thru your lens (literally)
Hard to pick!! They really are all breathtaking. Water Lilies, Morning Fog, Tree Limb, in no particular order.
Water lilies to me have the best balance of warm color balance, light balance, clarity and sharpness where it is needed. The vignetting is more subtle drawing your eye toward the subject without being distracting , beautiful well done picture.
Water lillies. Absolutely beautiful.
