Eclectic Landscape???





"Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow.
The shadow is what we think of it;
the tree is the real thing."
Abraham Lincoln


I wasn't feeling it at this stop in our workshop...there was a vista...
some trees with leaves starting to turn...
ya know...the stuff I shoot here in Mammoth...

But then I turned...and saw the shadows!!!

Now THAT's what I'm talkin' about!!!

Call me eclectic...

  3. Sunlight and shadow; when it's caught like this, it makes a creative photo.
