Thanks, Tony. I noticed something curious. I chanced to view the pictures on two different PCs. I prefer them at a lower resolution because then they look more like paintings. Of course they are still beautifull in high definition, but it is a different texture.Quote:

4. Then copy that URL code and paste in straight onto your post.
Just carefully go through the above, and it will show. It's a bit funny for the first time, but you will get it.

You're a god, Tony. But we knew that already. Thanks. This was taken just now of a bud on the bush tree thing in front of my house, because spring is springing.
Nice close up of those buds. And nicely framed with those branches in the background.
Clear picures!
Thank you both for your kind comments. That photo was taken with my Galaxy S6 which, any day now, will be replaced by a Galaxy S7, which is supposed to have an even better camera. I think they sacrificed some megapixels for better low light quality, but I have heard rave reviews of it. As I've said, I know essentially nothing about photography, but I'm finding it intriguing.
I like your picture, Tyrion. I think it's a little too centered and symmetrical to be interesting. It is what it is and not anything more. It does give new meaning to the term earbuds. And they do look like tiny horns, maybe on a baby satan.
Love, love, love your "curved horizon" pic and the one of the little girl. Actually two of your best, so far, Tony.
And here is one taken last winter of my front deck and beyond.

Nice shots, Tyrion. I've photographed similar buds, too.
My response to your critique, qimissung. ;)Quote:

I like the contrast stem x buds, spring growing out of winter, the old grey stem exploding in a double feast of colours!Quote:

Beautiful pic, Tyrion. You are to be envied for your back porch view. I love the white on white colors-and the asymmetrical trees in the corner. ;)
Why, this is sugar country!Quote:

How did you get this symmetrical picture, North Star?

Love your winter shots Tyrion, moody, something to them.
This is a maple leaf reproduction? Amazing! I thought it was the pattern of a cristal object!Quote:

Another utterly gorgeous shot, Tony, and thank you for your kind words about my pics. This next is another winter shot, facing now the other side of my front deck.

Nice pictures, Tyrion. It looks like you don't have many neighbors near by. I look outside my windows or doors and there's another building or a busy street or both.
I feel your pain, YesNo, and thanks for the kind words. I used to live in NYC and am grateful beyond words to live where I live now. Here's an autumn view out the front.

The pictures look uncannily like the countryside round where I live, low rolling wooded hills and lakes. I love it.

Those pictures of that crystal forest are so spectacular, North Star, they seem fantastic. My only chance of competing with that is to bring out the big guns. Yes, here is my foot:

I see your No Trespassing sign, Tony, and raise you this sign, which was taken at a sort of garden center near me. Interpret it as you wish.
