Another lucky day for me.....an old electrical panel outside my office window at work. It was recently cleaned up and painted brown......ugghhh! I like the old rusted and weatherbeaten look a lot better.

I sailed from Wellington, New Zealand through Cook Strait to the northwest of the South Island on April 1.
This is the work boat before I left.

It isn't often that I have a day of photography like I did this past April 1st. I actually have a gallery from that day here:
LaRee | Blue Sky Ecological Reserve
Now I just have to pick one that I think J (limitedvista) might like. I am awful at picking.

Thanks, I have few sharper ones, but this is my personal favourite, because of the background.

And, btw, how did you shot that touching fingers picture, I have looked at it now repeatedly, cause I like it!
