    Old knees like a ramp more than stone stairs.

    there needs to be lots more work but the ramp is useable and the knees are thankful.

    Nice capture, I think it would be worth returning to at different times of the day, time of year.

    the time of day will be interesting but we live in an endless summer. Sometimes a little drier or wetter but no change of seasons.

    Very pleasing composition and you have managed to keep those highlights on the leaves under control; bright but not over exposed.

    Computer problems resulted in a double posting. CinC locked up when I tried to post the reply so had to shut down and try again.

    When Myra and I married I had lived in about 40 places and she had lived in 1. She thought we should stay in one place I wanted to keep on traveling. Now she travels and I stay put. But I have found a neat way to cheat. I constantly re-create our yard. I still live in a new place every year or so. I just get to do it without moving.

    I am developing more skills and confidence with both RawTherapee and Gimp. I am even (Lord forgive me) reading the manuals. It is amazing how much more can be done once the reading starts.

    That reminds me of many years ago when I had trouble with my boat radar; so I took it to the local marine electrician who unsuccessfully fiddled around for a couple of hours then said 'As a last resort, I might have to consult the manual'

    Interesting image. I like it. Looks and sounds like you have a neat yard. Must be fun to work on it- and hard work too.

    Time for truth in advertising! We moved here about 12 years ago and have been developing the garden/temple fro the get-go. But without the aid of our handyman/gardener/jack of all trades Landoy it would not be near as nice as it is. He has a marvelous eye and a strong back. They allow him to transform our ideas into reality.
