A Short Life

I enjoy strolling through the old graveyards from time to time. It's so interesting seeing sayings and such with real meaning to them (you don't see that too often on newer stones). It's sad when you see a stone like this since the girl was so young at the time of her passing. The lighting on this is great. Very nicely done! And yes, you should have entered it, it would have done VERY well. :)

Your shots of the dunes are spectacular! Some day I'll be as good of a photographer as you (can I have your camera - that might help a bit! ;)

not enough focus...I can't see the characters described in the title. It's too abstract for me.

It took me a moment to find both of them :) I like how the sap hanging from the tree looks almost like icicles. I also like the texture/pattern it creates, especially where it criss-crosses at a diagonal with the cut marks. It certainly makes you think of "sticky". ~7

we keep the Magic Carpets in the back room........

I hope this does well for you. It is always tricky when you have dark areas (such as on the bottom). On non-calibrated monitors, this may appear as solid black, obscuring the carpet in the foreground.
