'Pic of the Week'
 
OK gang!! I just saw Flatline's pic in the 'what we look like' thread with Sgt. Slaughter and it gave me an idea!!!


This thread is going to be solely for our 'Pic of the Week'...........meaning that whatever we see that strikes us as cool, interesting or otherwise thought provoking gets posted here.
{PLEASE remember to use common sense when posting, as anything that's 'over the line' will be deleted}




Sooooooooooo, let's see what we've got!!!!!




Sunrise from the dashboard of my car.........

This is my favorite picture from my stay in Maine. It reminds me of the poem "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost.

Robert Frost is quite the poet, and the picture illustrates a literal interpretation of that poem: "I chose the road less travelled by, and that has made all the difference." It also leads to introspection of decisions we make each day, and how they affect our lives.

Thanks General Jones!

That's quite the emotional picture General Jones, I rather liked it. I can't think of any to submit myself, however.

Great shot Dave. It reminded me of this pic I took when this little beauty landed next to my front door last summer. It was a good test for the macro setting on my camera!

I've got two... Both from my parents yard. I love Bloodgrass. My parents' are huge compared to the ones I have in my flower bed at Emi's. The frog... The cats used to sleep around it when it was warm out.

That is a gorgeous photo, Craig. The colours are superb!

These beasties aren't very common where I live. Infact up until last week I had only saw a dead one! At that pond theres hundreds of them... But only when the sun is out and at its warmest. There was a rattling noise. I assumed it was a Grasshopper or something but it wasn't. It was a huge Dragonfly. Like 5-6 inches long. It wouldn't stay still long enough for me to snap though! I'll be keeping an eye out for it, I had no idea they got so big!

I dragged my Dad down in the evening with his big Sony camera thing in the hope we'd catch more Dragonflies. Especially since my Dad's camera is one of those big scary SLR things! It would have taken better pictures than my Cybershot! Sadly it wasn't warm enough though. Although I did snap one little guy I managed to see...

Frog

Very cute! I just wished I took some Joe's with me! I could have done my first "Caption this Photo!" :D

I love the colours G! Typical that the cats know all the best spots for a warm snooze! :cool:
