[Madrone]

Just 'cuz.

A DEER I ENCOUNTERED.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

1. My dear Madrone.......I love your pictures!

You have an exquisite face, with gorgeous eyes.......and the deer is just magnificent! The flower is so vivid, and detailed too.......

Here's mine: Me at the Ohio meetup....and a breaking wave on my beach, from last winter!

[Kerrytravelers]

5. That wave makes me want to jump right in!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

7. My dear Kerrytravelers!

Thanks so much, sweetie!

It sure looks wet, doesn't it?

I still can hardly believe I took this one.........:woohoo:

[Madrone]

8. I always love your pictures, Peggy.

You take some really nice ones. And you, of course, always look fantastic!

I love those flowers - Indian Paintbrushes. I took a lot of those this summer. And the deer picture would have been AMAZING if I'd been closer. It's REALLY difficult to do a full zoom (12x) and not move while sitting in the car. I must have gotten about 12-15 pictures of her - and she never moved. This one was probably the best of them all - okay, but not great.

I love that wave picture!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Thank you so much, my dear Madrone........

Your praise makes me blush......

And I think your deer pic is outstanding! I would have been absolutely thrilled to have taken such a picture!

Thank you.......:blush:

3. Nice! Nice looking people. Nice looking cat. Santa Monica pier never

looked that good when I was growing up in Southern Cal.

[Kerrytravelers]

4. Why, thank you! (I gotta brag- my furkids are cute!)

Santa Monica has been having some great weather over the past few weekends! Definitely beach weather!

[Madrone]

9. GREAT pictures!

The Santa Monica ones are breathtaking!

Thanks for sharing!

[Kerrytravelers]

15. My pleasure. I love Santa Monica.

[Ptah]

6. Damn the dial-up, full speed ahead

[Madrone]

10. I like your pictures, Ptah.

I think my FAVORITE ones of yours are the sunflowers at sunset. I think you called them the "right place at the right time" pics.
They're spectacular.

13. I have become one with my garden

16. I can't believe I'm getting in early on this one! Here's the official one

again:

17. RANDOM, you say? Here's my sweetie's Mom visiting the Great Wall...

(Yes, THAT "Great Wall")




None of them actually went on the BumperCars, but her sister
spent a few Yuan renting a horse for the Trail Ride.
I couldn't make this shit up if I tried!

[Madrone]

18. Too funny!

Bumper cars at the Great Wall? :rofl:

[Richard Steele]

20. Yeah, China is NOT at all like I imagined it.

The BeiJhiing skyline at night looks like
NOTHING so much as the opening sequence from "Futurama".

KentuckyFriedChicken is EVERYWHERE, and the average citizen
has never owned a box-style television- they had tube radios
for 50 years, then jumped straight to Plasma Flatscreens.
She saw more people with 2 cellphones than people with none.

I'm almost sorry I didn't go along.

(Give me a minute to find it; I'll post one of her city skyline pics.
You REALLY gotta see it to believe it.)

19. A day at the beach.
