Fabulous shot of that beautiful tree Dave!
Yep, we're all taking a little break before heading up to Sommer's campground.

Great photos, Dave! Didn't I promise the dogwood would be amazing?!?!

Thanks Frits. It will will be well worth waiting to see your images!

Leigh,
You did say that tree would be amazing and a must see. You were so right!
This will become a print at my home for sure!

After we got back from the Botanical Gardens, I had a lovely swim in the hotel pool and then have been hard at work uploading and processing images! :smile: First ones are up -- they're in the thread on Meet and Greet....

Made me hungry processing them! Guess it's getting close to dinner time!

 

[J.Alan]

Dave, I really like

the dogwood, and the ropes. I though about shooting them, and did not. Now I wish I had. Maybe next time.

 

[Flew]

Excellent set Dave. I thought that you were going back to the hotel to take a nap??!? I did, so I'm just now going through mine. :smile:

 

[Phil K]

Very nice set, Dave. The Dogwood is beautiful.

Now Dave! You missed the campfire last year too! Shame on you! You better not chicken out next year! Oh well, get up early in the morning and say "HI" for me if you see "MY" eagle! LOL
