Ellie, I am happy to be growing older when there are so many interesting things to learn and new toys to play with.

Thanks William, as a slower holiday time approaches I hope to knuckle down and study some new techniques. I reall want to get a macro lens and off camera lighting for shooting close ups as well a new listings.

Thank you Roger and may I say with many others....facial hair suits you. I have had the same glorious mooostache since I was 19. Beards make me look Amish.

Aww shucks Lynda

John, these colors are so amazing they look fake. I cropped and sharpened the picture but did not have to boost the color. We have had more rain in the months of sept and oct. than I remember ever getting as well as a really late first frost.  The trees are just amazing and have only recently passed their peak. Heck, roses are still blooming in spots.

Thanks Steve, I see your tripod so I am heading over to your blog young man. Thanks for stopping in!
