Roz : Childhood Years

Comment:
i'm wondering if the Roz you are referring to is me .. ?? ..
if it is .. were you spying on me 60+ years ago when i was doing just that as a child .. it was mainly insects i was observing .. only because there werent any frogs around that were gracious enough to let me examine them ..
if it isnt me its still a great shot and perfect for the challenge ..
many congrats on the red ribbon .. :)

In a hurry

YES .!!!.
you have stepped out of the box on this one .. so different from every other entry ..
it has so much going for it ..
for starters when it opened there was that feeling that comes across a person when they see something really beautiful and that touches their heart ..
this is dreamy and exciting all at the same time ...
and the grading from blue to yellow .. MAGIC .. !! ..
i rarely make pics favs but i'll have to on this one .. :)

added to say .. this is sublime .. :)

this may not appeal to many voters .. but i'd love to be wrong ..
it actually took me a little while to appreciate it fully ..
i'm loving the abstract quality ..
a lot of what i love about this i cant put into words .
probably lucky you . would only subtract ..
