I like how you pulled the last challenge in by forming those two (almost) triangles of blue and green. Plenty sharp with bright natural colors. Eh? -Doug

Thanks Penny and Tommy :-) I'm Canadian Tommy but mostly grew up in the US of A. I do use the metric system at work but to you and me the pole is about 50 feet tall. I thought I would reference the more sensible metric system for all our international friends :-)

Brent are you not a native of this US of A? Or is it only the professional you that talks in meters? We ignorant Americans can't understand the metric system even if we were in the US Army which has gone metric. Nice pov here with focus on one selected part of the totem. -tv

I think goofy has a definite place with WA. Good one. Penny Street

He he, so you remember the "Standup Comic" image Kiki? I did get a kick out of that shot. Okay, this toothy fellow stays then :-)

NO, keep it, it's Funny! :) You take great funny shots, I still remember your cactus crowds.

Thanks Kiki and Rod :-) Well I wonder if I went too "goofy" with the shot in trying to emphasize the WA distortion, I did take some in portrait orientation that aren't quite as wacky and show more height. Maybe I will try processing one of those later...

Doh.. I meant "jolly". Those giant teeth gives it a cartoon-like goofy expression.
