Rupert, the toy is serving you well. If I had to guess I would say "Texas Hill Country". How come the grass is green? Oh its only March.. TFS Cliff

Like the first one Rupert a lot of similar roads to nowhere here as well.

Rupert, I like both of them the first one because I have been on a lot of very similar roads and the 2nd one has really good sunset colors.

I like the last one so much. It is just so peaceful looking and the colors are wonderful.

Wow! I don't understand what a toy camera is, but it takes wonderful shots. The first is wonderful with its long view, beautiful colours, but the second is soooo painterly! I just love it.... very very nice artistic images Rupert!

Very nice photographs, Rupert.

Thanks guys, Susan and Tess! I appreciate the comments. The little X10 is so fun to use, and so easy to carry around....Otis says bad things about it, but I still love it...just not for shooting Handsome Squirrels!

That first shot......as I headed back to the highway from that long country road, I noticed later that the sky had turned red with colorful clouds just where I had been 20 minutes earlier. Doesn't that get you! I could have had the perfect sky if I had just stuck around...but that is Rattlesnake country, and they are thick along that road at dusk, so maybe it is better I didn't linger?

I came close to being bitten at that location a couple of years back......

Best Regards!
