2. You're killing me...

I have to think about this one.

3. Vortex, Hoh, Creepy, Katrina

Hi, these are the 4 I like the best but all are wonderful. Hmmm, reading the subject line as poetry is odd. (woof)

8. Woof?

[uppityperson]

9. Nice, had to check out your other pictures too

meow and woof. Thank you.

11. in your photobucket account, sorry, too cryptic

I found 3 under animals that looked very familiar, the black/white statuesque feline, the hidden grey tabby and the begging dog. Sorry for being cryptic, I do that sometimes, sorry. Keep taking pictures, you do a good job, nice pictures.

12. Oh yea!

I uploaded them as part of my tour of the Northwest thread I still haven't gotten around to posting in here. One of these days, and then your darlings will be famous! B-) Or at least they'll have their 15 minutes of fame in the Photo Group. :)

14. My favorite (it's framable)

15. Thanks, TNut.

But the reason I posted the dog shot further upthread was because I was answering a post by uppityperson. And that is uppityperson's dog. It was a private joke for the two of us "in the know"--very rude, poor netiquette.

Bad intheflow! :spank:

4. This thread should push Placebo over the edge

Too many choices. I'm goin' have to think on it awhile. Moody and Meadow kinda' appeal to me this eve but I might have a different take on things in the morning after a cup of coffee or three.

5. Creepy Forest

but that was a tough one. Thank god you didn't give us more choices.

6. I have it narrowed down to 9

There's a lesson here somewhere. This Poll certainly reflects the diverse subjective nature of this whole photographemicalistic stuff.

Force me to vote? Goin' with Moody but you know that I always like Creepy. And Meadow has a nostalgic feel to it that I really like.

You have a real dilemma here. Good luck figuring it all out, though I think you could go with any of these and do well in the vote-o-rama over at the Lounge.

7. I have narrowed it down to 7.

And Creepy isn't one of the finalists. Creepy really is more of a forest shot, not a tree shot. I'm also ruling out Mesquite Path and Cotton-Candied Crabapples because they're really path photos, not tree photos. I'm making an exception to that rule with Dogwood, because that photo really is about a tree sticking out in its landscape.

Cannot believe Shaggy Tree hasn't gotten any votes! :cry: That was the first photo I ever took that made me think I might be okay at this photography thing. It's the first photo I ever enlarged--to 16x20! :cry:






But then, maybe I'm just too attached to that shot. :nopity:

13. I like Shaggy but I have a feeling that

it lost a quite bit in the resizing and web colors. I know I have had pics that looked a lot better before resizing for the web. Specially ones that have a lot of detail going on. But it/you were right about you being okay at this photography thing. A bit more than ok if you ask me and a few others I know.
