Opening for the super moon .....
Posted By: daacon, 08-12-2014, 11:35 AM

...there was a pretty good warm up act. We were fortunate enough to be at the lake where there was almost no breeze, a rare occurrence in these parts. Had it not been for the persistent 3,456,727 mosquitoes showing kamikaze pilot /al Qaeda resolve in attacking us we may have stayed a little longer

You really got some great shots in there! My faves are #3 and #4 (the second #4) but I'd hang any of them on my wall. Hopefully you didn't get too many bites.

this kind of photo?

Makes your mountain shots look mundane. These are absolutely spectacular and I'm impressed, and you should be pleased at your growth as a photographer.

Hmmm Dave....sort of a bit ordinary really...I mean where is the moose grazing in the shallows ? The canoeist slicing through the water with the sun reflecting of the paddles and through the cascading water drops ?? Bonzedire would have had a couple of models eloquently blended into this marvellous scene...??

I mean, honestly, other than the scene being beautifully captured and being rated a wow! Wow!! bloody WOW!!!.....you really could have done better...............................................................................................

This is Dave we are talking about, so what's really missing a 6 pack or 2-4
