To dkmurphys: Cold autumn day
Funny you mention that. It looks warm and tropical, but it was windy and cold when I took the picture. Ah, Lake Michigan in September.

To BennyV: Marley
Funny, I wasn't even thinking of the Marley song. I was thinking instead of the chorus to Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind," as sung by Alicia Keys.

To dta: Dolomites
Funny you saw that. So did the folks who explored it, hence the name: named not after the rock, but the mountains in Italy.

Thanks Malgo. You know, I'm realizing there are still some excellent photographers on this site. Yeah, we've lost Henk, Luis Afonso, Ryan Thayne, Bob Garrigus, and so many others that I viewed as...

Hi Klaudio:
Thanks for the excellent critique. It's encouraging to see there are still photographers dedicated to the original notion of TE. I haven't been as good as I should be about mentoring...

Hi Hans:
Thanks for the comments! I don't think most visitors see this. It's reached from the gardens via a somewhat dark hallway under ground level. There aren't any signs outside it. We happened...

Hi Steven:
Yeah, sometimes I'm surprised I still post. Maybe out of loyalty? Finding TE online over 10 years ago is what got me started on photography. So even though it's lost the sense of...

Hi Denis:
There's a simple way around the tourists. It consists of two steps: 1) Stay in a hotel on the island, rather than the mainland, and 2) take day trips out of Venice during the day. You'll...

If I remember correctly, by August it's a bit better. Early summer is much worse. But I didn't live here at the time, only up visiting. I certainly don't remember mosquitoes or flies being a problem...

Haha! I love the imagery of a billiard table for Belgium. Perfect! In truth, much of Texas is also like a billiard table (except a dead, brown billiard table). My wife refers to those spots as places...

Certain parts of Texas are quite scenic. This is one of them. But by and large, you have to drive a lot farther, through a lot more nondescript scenery, to see anything beautiful in...

Hi Klaudio:
Thanks for your note. Actually, people weren't really involved in setting these wildfires; they were caused by lightning strikes. So I'll call them natural colors. ;)
Good to hear...

Yeah, I wish it were more sharp as well. It's not for lack of post-processing on my end. It looks like TE has changed the quality of uploads, because my file looks great on my computer, but terrible...

Hi Luciano:
Thanks for your nice note. I have to say, though, your country does a pretty good job of selling itself! Italy's one of the most beautiful places I've ever been.
Cheers!

Hi Steve:
A simple reason, actually. I needed all the light I could get, since my camera doesn't do well at a higher ISO. So f/4 it was.
