Your first image is stunning Janet - I like the way that the different natural shapes make delineated patterns. It has a Japanese feel about it and everything is so sharp.

I had Flickr find my old site from way back when and I have posted a "few" shots on Open Forum - they are in photographic terms "as old as the hills"
