Beautiful!

so Beautiful! I would have loved to been there to capture this! "Great Capture" :) Kristia!

Timing and location... lol

I am not especially fond of lizard type creatures but I think this is incredible with the soft areas contrasting with the extreme detail and pattern around the eye.

love this

Love the big scene. All featured in the "Out West" Group. http://fineartamerica.com/groups/out-west--1-per-day--now-eleven-states.html

I will start with this one.

I can't stop thinking about your work, Sheila :) I'm in love since saw it first time, long time ago...

One of my favorites by Ausra

I'm especially drawn to this as to the simplicity in composition, the stunning colors, and it is a beach scene (where I'd like to be nearby again one day).

Love this

The reflections in this one are amazing

I really like these shots

Oh, tough one to nail down to just a few Marlene. Will start off with these 4 amazing works

Fun thread Marlene!!!!! Thank you :-)

Paulette Thomas has an incredible bird image gallery. I would love to capture this myself just so I could paint it!

Abbie,
Thank you...funny story about that pic....I was waiting in front of my aunt's nursing home for an old friend to pick me up for lunch. It was sunny and the patio furniture made for a great capture. I hadn't seen this friend in 45 years...she told me what kind of car she drove and that her hair was now blond....I told her my blond hair was now brown.
So the car pulls up...I see a blond and I climb into the passenger side...the woman looks at me and says" can you please give this package of food to my mom...she's sitting next to you on the patio."
Obviously, it wasn't my friend! lol.

There are so many extraordinary photographs to choose from, it's impossible to find a favorite. But here are a couple of great images . . .





And thanks, Gabriele.

Lol okay that gave it even more life, Marlene

Two of my favorites that I would love to have captured, if only to have witnessed them myself:

I couldn't choose just one, so I picked three of my favorites.

This little guy makes me smile every time I see it.

This image completely amazes me.

This one I find stunningly beautiful.

Dan has so many awesome captures, it's hard to pick just one. But here is a very fine example:

Another great idea for a thread, Marlene!! How many times have I held myself back from saying, "only thing wrong with this one is I didn't take it" LOL!!
