Ouch. You're absolutely correct. I mean Fort Clinch. LOL We went to both.

Craig,
Stonewall Jackson is a great image...

PS anyone know how to insert an image using flickr???? i can't seem to get'r done.

Chuckc

Above the image on Flickr there will be an Actions option and icons for Facebook and Twitter with a dropdown option. Choose that and down in the list there will be an option to grab the HTML/BB code. I choose BB code and select the size and paste it into the message.

Chuck,
thanks....
i just tried it and it worked as you said...

good old photobucket is still the easiest to work with, however, some one in our IT department decided that PB needed blocking....
i can't see my images at work nor upload anymore....
i understand why fb, twiter got blocked and i don't really care....the blocking of pb though???

We have to be protected from ourselves. Barney Fyfe has traded in his gun for a keyboard it seems.

Always working to give a new look to an old scene I decided to shoot the Naples Pier right after the rain. By switching to A priority & dialing down to f32 on my wide angle I knew I'd both get a real sharp pier with a soft water blur. Craig will deduct points for the blurred people(:p) but I like that slight quality in this context... Gordon.

Here is one from ealier this summer. Lake Pontchartrain.

This one's kinda weird, almost didn't post it...it's 'grainy' because it was taken in the very early morning through a heavy mist. Those who recognize the structure don't need to be told where it is, as for the rest, they don't need to know.

On the Way to the Ramp (a word picture)

A sun, struggling to break its chains...
the distant splash of feeding fish.
The ghostly cry of an unseen bird...
the soft caress of lingering mist.

I really, really like this. I think the grain enhances the mood. Well done!

Thank you, WaterE!...never even bothered to get that image printed.
Maybe the little prose helps.

There are some very talented photographers on here, and you're certainly one of them. As for me?...I just take a stab at it now and then. I'm rendering (attempting to) some of my photos in pastels...but when I see the work that your Jennifer does, I feel like a first grader with crayons...she is truly an artist. :thumbsup

gordonc

In response to Captcb, There's a nice sharp, strong silhouette that really says "Florida"...great shot- Gordon. Now if I had just placed it there...:huh

Yes, Jennifer is truly talented, but that is a story for another thread (Watch for photos/videos of her in the next few weeks from the Buffalo, WY Rodeo and an event in Dublin.)

Anyway, FYI, Russell Chapman is one of my favorite artists. I met him and became acquainted with him and his work while on a fishing trip to Livingston, MT.

Below is a URL to some of his art. Your photo reminds me a lot of his work.
