    Thanks Virgil!

    I simply love your texture Gillet, do you use film or digital?

    Here is a picture of a Rangoli made from flowers. Last week we celebrated Onam in our office. It is a harvest festival of the state of Kerala.

    This is a special feature in the celebrations besides preparing delicacies and dressing up in the traditional attire.

    Charms strike the sight, but merit wins the soul.

    Be the change you wish to see

    Beautiful pix everyone

    These aren't the best quality, but here are a couple of shots from a Dodgers vs Padres game last week at Dodger's stadium

    DanielBenoit,

    Nice photos. It is interesting how something as commonplace as twigs on a roof can captivate one’s interest if captured by a creative eye. I found the first image under “Light Shadow and Noir” to be appealing as well. The vague figure in the dark appears slightly skewed as if the image was warped or projected off of a mirror (?)

    With the Green Bay winter looming, perhaps you could take a few winterscapes for those of us who don’t see a whole lot of snow.

    Thanks for the comment, but I have to chuckle at the texture comment simply because the texture is a mostly a result of age and wear on the physical print that I scanned. Yes; the photo was taken with a Pentax ME SLR film camera. Who know's?, maybe one day we will come full circle and re discover the textured qualities of film.

    Thanks for the comments

    Lol, I noticed that kind of grittiness in the picture and that's what I liked about it. For some reason the combination of the aircraft and the worn texture really appealed to me.

    Dear me, you are right. I never thought about it, and I snapped that shot... Interesting observation.
