Seems that we have not posted anything for a looong while...this is true but as the summer is short and the weather has been so much like western Canada and the south....(fog, rain, high winds, cool temperatures and little sunshine)... that we have decided it better to capture all we can now and edit over the winter....Today the rains broke open to clear skies and high winds and what a perfect "AfterLoon" it became....

Congratulations, Kevin! This really is going to be a family thing :o Lovely image that shows the colour of the eye well and has good detail. I like the vegetation.

Wonderful shot. Nice light and exposed well. You might want to clone that one oof grass blade on top of the head but extremely minor and picky by me.
