Beautiful scene with great colors.  Congratulations, Phil

Wonderful shot that tells a story.  Congratulations, Phil

I really like this image.  It is the kind of scene I can see looking at when I need to clear my head and relax.  Congratulations Phil

Really nice composition and great color.  Congratulations, Phil

Thanks for your viewing and nice comments. Living in California where where sunsets seem much more transitory, St. Petersburg sunsets lasted  a long time-the clouds that night were a real plus.  Thanks again, Phil

Thanks for your kind comments.The day had been overcast and dull so for the evening excursion I left my Fujifilm X-T1 behind but grabbed my little Sony RX100 and shoved it in my pocket not expecting much.  Shortly after starting out the overcast gave way to some great clouds and a wonderful sunset.  Thanks again, Phil

Thanks for viewing and your comments. I think my wife and I had stopped and were looking at the map to try to get back to our hotel in Stockholm, when I turned around and noticed this really incongruous scene.  I never stopped to try and figure out what the statues were doing, but I think the man was probably more lost than we were.

Please View larger. Your comments and suggestions are greatly

appreciated.

Wonderful image.  It provides a wonderful serene mood,

Congratulations, Phil

Tony, a great tribute to our imagination and a striking image.  Congratulations, Phil

A beautiful image. Congratulations, Phil

Wonderful composition, colors and style.  Congratulations, Phil

I appreciate your comments.  I'm finding flowers in general to be a challenge.  Thanks again, Phil

I had the day planned to go take photos at the local farmer's market and then go to an open house at a raptor preserve. The rain "washed out" those plans, but during a break I got some shots in my daughter's garden.  Thanks again, Phil

Thanks for your comment.  I had a lot of time to study them as the fuchsia plant was  hanging just outside of a sliding glass door. All I had to do was twist the plant around to get the background I wanted.  Thanks again, Phil

Great mood and colors.  I enjoyed looking at the various activities of the people and imagining their thoughts in the scene.  Congratulations, Phil

Thanks for your kind comments. My wife and I spent most of the day inside watching the rain.  After it finally stopped, I grabbed the camera as much to get out of the house as to take pictures.

I appreciate your kind comments.  I just like the pattern with the colors.

Thanks again.

Thanks for your kind comment.  I loved the colors and pattern on this abandoned oil storage tank on the beach.

Elegant!  Congratulations, Phil

Very nice image-the highlights and shadows convey a wonderful sense of moodiness.  My only suggestion would be to vignette the right hand corners of the frame.  Congratulations, Phil

Really nice image.  Zabriskie Point and Golden Canyon are great places for a sunrise.  The colors seem to change from one minute to the next.

Congratulations, Phil

Thanks Tony-The Alabama Hills  area is near to a small town (Lone Pine)  in the Eastern Sierras, and I was the fourth or fifth person in line to get this view-slipping and sliding and getting my body into shapes that my almost octogenarian body did not seem appropriate.  I debated about the cropping,  but I finally decided on this, as I liked the "flow"of the arch in the frame. In retrospect , I think a somewhat smaller focal length would have given both a sense of the arch and the background without cutting off the top of the arch.  Well, I get to go back this summer.  Thanks again, Phil
