Gosh, is it that time already? I had forgotten again. Wonderful image and I have been taking a look through all your beautiful flowers. I love that bridge too, it is so very pretty :D

My internet has been down more than up lately. That silly repairman is coming out tomorrow. Hopefully he will get the problem fixed this time. Glad I was able to pull up this beautiful sky shot. Fantastic!

Hi Mickie,

That is a magnificent shot,
it definitely looks as though there
is fire in the sky.

Spectacular.
