a bit of a stretch on the letters but what a nice shot! I once wroked for a boss whom we called C.P., and he liked a toothpick in his mouth too! It may be a trick of the lighting, but it almost looks as thogh the eye on our right is looking right at the lens, and the one to our left is looking at the photographer. Not a baaaaaaaad shot!

Mimosa at Easter dawn
by Lately

Comment:
Thanks for taking time to comment. I happened upon this mimosa tree while chasing a sunrise to the river almost a year ago, and re-visited occasionally since. Went again on Easter morning, and was delighted to find the very beginning of this year's buds, with the sunrise in the background. Thought it fit, since buds are a beginning, as are sunrises, as is Easter.... Hope to get some more to share later. My first experience with this tree was with a Kodak DX6490, where I was trying out the 10x optical, and was surprised to discover how much fun it is to 'get intimate' with a mimosa blossom in full glory. *grin* This time, I have a new-to-me- Olympus C740UZ, and was trying it out on an old friend (the tree). The Kodak has a better resolution, but regularly requires the use of the sharing dock to unload its photos, and I cannot always do that in the field. Thus am hoping to move to the Olympus, to avoid that issue.

This is one of those rare instances ... where it is much more than just a photo ... as others have said: look at this as you listen to some acoustical music; .. remember your first time of trying to get the chords right ... or remember trying to help someone else to get the chords right .... 'tis this kind of shot .. that goes far beyond just being great photography, but captures a far deeper and broader spectrum of life ... makes the shot rise above others .... Thanks for sharing!

Sweet! Nice detail, especially in the foreground ducklings (goslings?). Really like this shot, expecially with the light color of the water behind their heads.
