Things I’m Thankful to Cliff For… My first leather jacket.
4 and 5 are my favorites, 5 more so than 4. All are lovely though.
I think your town is very pretty! I always enjoy shots around where you live.
I love those water reflections.
The last two pics were totally sooo neat. awsome shots . Dude thats a lot of specs you've got there. so did you use a digital camera??
Fun shots. I have to say the bottom two are my favorite. I'm a big fan of reflections. =)
love the reflections micki :D
Lovely series! The last 2 are winners for me, awesome reflections!!
Lovely shots. I always like your "glimpse of my town" days. I'll echo what others have said...the last 2 are particularly engaging.
My fav. is the perspective on the Court house! It looks very powerful. Nice
My favourite is the last one - love the reflections on the water surface!
Thank you Mickey for always giving us a few sites in your town.It is visiting without leaving home. Your photos always catch the true mood of your subject.That first photo is that littering at its worst!!
reflection in the water is fantastic....nice color and lovley lines...great capture:-))
Micki, what a treat it must be to live out in the "sticks" and on a pennisula to boot! I guess that it must be inconvenient sometimes, but you sure make it look inviting.
I love the shots of the piers.
The two last shots are exceptional. Reflections on water are mesmerizing and the slow shutter speeds have given that lovely smooth effect to the water.
Love 'em, too. I'm partial to the waterfront photo - nice job!
Micki. Lovely reflection shots and the subdued colours in the last two really caught my eye. Those last two are so clear and crisp also. It would be great to clean that old piece of machinery of plant growth to really see what it really looks like. Seems to me you had a lovely hour or two wandering around. Cheers. Chris
I always enjoy the scenes around your town.
Snazzy looking courthouse!!!...but that last shot....WOW!!! Gorgeous place and photo Micki!
Nice reflections on the bottom two. Overall, a neat series.
hola estupendas fotos un saludo
looks a lovely place - i don't think i could walk around my town and come up with such fantastic shots!
I love reflections on water. #3,4,5 are all great images, must have been quite an evening during the drive.
Something for everyone today - I especially enjoy the first shot, fascinated with how nature overtakes all given enough time. I keep looking for a 'Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.' logo somewhere on that old boat, too :-)
The reflections, I noticed they are intense. Your choice of narrower aperture and slower shutter speed perhaps? I like it, perfect like a painting. Perhaps because of the water. Intriguing. Good scenery shots.
