The Wind Blows

I visited some potter friends today to get material for their Web site. They have
some of their cracked pieces on various posts and trees around their property.
I had to rush home so only got a few shots.

I had to rush home so I could wait all afternoon for some repairmen to show up
to fix our new treadmill. We have it out on our covered front porch for now which
may not be such a good idea. The reason the treadmill would no longer turn-on was
because a tiny frog had gotten inside and fried itself on the circuit board. The poor
little thing. We have to wait two weeks for the part and repair, I hope I won't be too
afraid of using the thing. I don't want any more creature deaths on my hands.

there seems to be a look of innocence on his face!

I love the natural hues that run through this and the depth of field/focus is really done well. The verdancy and crisscross of branches/leaves is unobtrusive, but a big part of what makes this photo breathe.

Wow. I'd love to have that. Fantastic piece of artwork. And well captured.

OT, I worked in a computer repair shop and one day a woman who was very active in NORML brought in a printer that stopped working. It turned out a frog had crawled in it. We got a lot of mileage out of that. :)
