Sunset pic
I thought this was really cool, the way the sun lit up the trees and left the mountains dark. The second after I took this picture, the light on the trees was gone. Sometimes you only get one shot. :shrug:

4. Hey, CP!
I lucked out! I was downstairs talking to my mom on the phone when harleydad told me to come upstairs right away. He brought my camera and I shot as quickly as I could. Didn't have time to focus or anything. The next photo is completely different.

Thanks! :woohoo:

:hi:

I'd never seen anything like it ... and I've seen plenty of sunsets. I'm glad I was able to capture it. :D

11. MissHC!
:loveya: :hug: :hi: You're right about the fence. They have horses in there now and use it to train one of them. The mountains do look close, don't they? :D

12. That photo
is just breathtaking. You should get it matted and framed. Wow! Talk about being at the right place at the right time! It was not luck, it was meant to be.

13. Good morning, SF!
:hi: :loveya: :hug:

My brother-in-law does fantastic framing and I know a photographer who can get a lab print for me. I just might do it. Thank you!

17. That's a great photograph
I love the big light in the middle ground and I also think you have a great composition with the fence and barn over in the left of the picture. The forground tree into the upper left corner frames it beautifully. I love it and would love to paint that!!!!

My eye gets pulled right into this picture. Great work! :applause:

20. I think she is on the mend
Thanks for asking, AirmensMom. We have used a recipe that another DUer posted and she is loving her new vittles. She still has her moments, but she is definitely much better. She will be seeing the vet again next week for a follow up.
