<p>It's been a difficult week, so a few moments spent with the WedNEsDAy thread is a special pleasure today. The photo below was taken two weeks ago during our snow, but a recent discussion about photo-editing has inspired me to do some extra post-shot processing, which I think rather suits the content.</p>

<p>Even so, I've a way to go when compared with Epp B's wonderfully elegant capture of a similar subject.</p><div></div>

<p>Well - it's pouring "dogs & cats" to quote my daughter today, so maybe I'll have a chance to comment today. :)<br>

First up - to <strong>Dan South, Tiffany Brook, Gej Jones</strong> (yes they are toys. :-) ) <strong>& Mark H</strong> . Thank you all for commenting on Kyrie's photo. We're enjoying her a lot. :-)<br>

For this week - this is what has caught my eye....<br>

<strong>Hamish</strong> - I so remember those cold days....<br>

<strong>Shane</strong> - stunning shot - love the colors & framing - - stellar.<br>

<strong>Shun </strong> - fun shot. Oh I remember being about 18 years old & buying a life vest for our cat. We were going sailing on our new boat for three weeks bringing along the cat. He was forced to wear the vest & he could not stand it. Poor boy....<br>

<strong>James </strong> - great door - - love the colors.<br>

<strong>Matthew</strong> - love your Yellow Tailed Black Cockatoo in flight. I love the Black Cockatoos. Do you know that bird is worth about $ 20,000 in the US..... <br>

<strong>Greg</strong> - I love when babies get to the point that they start discovering their toes & feet. Too cute. :)<br>

<p>Well now here we are a few hours later, good work everyone. A few the touched me this week.<br>

Grant tanner - I like it. Maybe the color, the simplicity, I dont know. I like it.<br>

Epp B - the wait was worth it.<br>

Shane Srogi - Nice Composition. The frog is gross, I dont like frogs but the photo is nice<br>

Paul B - the bars make me feel bad for the sheep<br>

Aguinaldo de paula - Love the movement, I feel like I am moving a really fast<br>

Joe Elrod - Life goes on, we are so small.<br>

Doug Santo - Lovely<br>

Peter Giraudian - they are beautiful birds, kind of a aeronautical geek myself. Nice capture</p>

[marklcooper]

<p>Mike L Long - nice shot of the falls. Do you live in the area?</p>

<p>I can't believe I've had my D300 for 16 months now and have yet to go to Hocking Hills since I got it. It's a real crime because my farm is an easy 20 minute drive due north of Logan.</p>
