<p>Very nice!</p>

<p>Great series, Raymond! I especially like "Cherry Blossom along brook"--it's absolutely gorgeous and really captures the essence of Spring. Post more when you can!</p>

[RCap]

<p>Thank all. Andy I like the first one also.</p>

<p>Very Nice pictures and color balance too. Thanks for the post. Keep them coming; sp</p>

<p>Accurate and subtle Portra colour, good graduation of tones, altogether a very nice series. That's an impressive tree in "Verona Park"!</p>

<p>Nice series that truly represent the spirit of Spring. Well done Raymond.</p>

<p>very very nice! I really like the tree by the path</p>

<p>Thank you for showing these, Raymond. I went to a photo trade show last week and the guy at the Kodak booth was giving away samples of that film and he gave me a few rolls. After seeing these shots I'm itching to try it out. </p>

<p>Louis, free film is always good. Portra is one of my favorite color films. In both the VC and NC varieties.</p>

<p>Yes, great color with the Planar and Portra VC. I'll have to get some in 120 this weekend at Unique.<br>

Your "Budding Tree" is a great spot to chuck some nightcrawlers, Raymond. I landed a 16-pound channel cat there a couple of years ago. <br>

Early morning along the banks of Verona Lake with some deer-hair poppers on a 7-wt flyrod are great for the chunky largemouth bass from late May thru August. Some real lunkers hang out in the water hazards of the gold course, too.</p>

<p>Gabor, I see people fishing in Verona Park all the time. I used to catch sunfish there as a youngster. I didn't realize they had bass in there.</p>
