Just as we were leaving this area , I decided to take a bit of a different shot as walking through the forest.

Dave - I got a good laugh out of these images. Saw the first one and thought "nice, but I wish he was closer to the edge of this set of trees, too much forest in the foreground". Started to scroll down to type this out and saw the second image and thought - yes he listened to me in advance and nailed the shot.

Very nice images deacon, I really do have to get back out there soon. Haven't been out since 2001, years before my first digital camera.

Thanks Norm do it if you get a chance - the towns may have changed but the landscape is the same
