Beautiful, thank you!

Great shots of the leaves North Star. I love the dire contrast in b/w and the graininess (especially in the last photo where the epidermal cells have this powdery look contrasting greatly with the black smoothness of the background). I imagine that the walls of your house are filled with your photos?

Thank you both.

Wonderful effect.  Had you not given a title I would have thought it crystallography.  How the Hades did you do it?  (Or is it artist's secret?)

Hey! Where'd the water go?

Lovely, Karlo, thanks!

Cheers, Karl!

It can't always rain, even if I wanted that..

[Karl Henning]

I think the rains have stopped here long enough for me to consider venturing out for a walk . . . .

There might be something more annoying than rain out there waiting for you..

Is that a "Chubby Rain" allusion?

No. I had not heard of [ï]Chubby Rain[/i] before, so thanks for informing me. . .

Looking at Ansel Adams' work from here, quite a few examples are way too low quality files, though.

[ZauberdrachenNr.7]

I'm clearing out some home computer files and doing back-ups and thought to share some of my "captures," an amusing (and if one is the subject of the camera a possibly alarming) term.  Hope this won't annoy like the proverbial family slideshow.  Prob. be just a once a year infliction anyway.  I've been an active photographer for under three years and still seek my stylistic niche (some might say rut and I don't get into those).  This first is of a 19th century house I fell in love with along the Barge Canal in NYS.  Despite the gate, a most inviting entryway.

I'm drawn to things that beckon, alleyways, pleasant and un-; country roads, rr tracks; sirens.

When I shoot nature themes, I often feel out of my element actually.  Like Baudelaire, I'm more of a city guy, but still, there's plenty of nature 'infiltrating' everywhere...
