Patricia L KeelinParticipantI like your visitor, Michael!
Just Passing Through
Patricia L KeelinParticipantAh, I meant to also comment on two other posts above…
It’s obvious the clouds love you, Ruth. Those Eyebrows and Big Lips don’t lie!
And Hans, I love your Octopus’s Garden! Who wouldn’t want to live there? In the photo below, I pushed the contrast a bit to catch the fish swimming in for a visit (on left partly hidden by seaweeds).
A Visitor To The Octopus’s Garden
Patricia L KeelinParticipantRuth, your Blowing Smoke is very funny! I think you caught Aeolus in the act — or — maybe this creature has something to do with it?
Are You Talking To Me?
Patricia L KeelinParticipantRuth, your Navajo rug is a work of art! And I see similar art in the horizontal clouds Michael captured following it.
Hans, your latest is like a sudden shift from dreaming… What?! Where am I?! Where was I?! A fabulous smash into full wakefulness. Ah, but to quote a favorite song by the Beatles:
Please don’t wake me
No, don’t shake me
Leave me where I am
I’m only sleeping…
Sleep Spindles
Patricia L KeelinParticipantAnother splendid example with beautiful definition in #188, Michael!
Tumultuous Tide
Patricia L KeelinParticipantGorgeous, deep rose-to-purple in Just Sunset Colors from Hans, followed by Michael’s incandescent scarlet—Wow! Good thing Ruth brought us those beautiful, softer shades of Bedtime so our eyes might rest a moment before Michael wakes us again with #723. It brings to mind a bubble stream that someone might want to play in.
Dolphin’s Delight
Patricia L KeelinParticipantI’ve scrolled back to Approaching Snow to enjoy again the ethereal illumination you’ve captured there, Hans. The image works so well in B&W to relay the coolness of that scene.
Donatella, it is so nice to see you here again, and with such beautiful photos from the wild-weathered Pacific Northwet.
Ruth, Just Today gives such an impression of space I found myself taking an extra big breath while viewing it.
Followed by holding that same breath as your Dunescape appeared, Hans. Looks like a good downpour might have begun any second there.
A few days of all -blue skies here, save the occasional passer-by. Still, it gives me hope!
Spirits Rising
Patricia L KeelinParticipantLot of amorphous action in #187, Michael. Love the mystery there.
Thank you for kind words, Hans, and now I see the flying bird too. I was only familiar with the song by the title The Wind That Shakes The Barley until now, so danke je for the introduction to John Barleycorn. And, of course, I was eager to see what image would accompany your title It’s Eating Something. The question is…what might that be?
A Delish Fish?
Patricia L KeelinParticipantRuth, One More January Moon is a bright jewel. Hans, your close up Iridescence is ever so delicious. And Gregory, the frosty feel of your halo with the filigree of tree branches in a supporting role is simply exquisite.
Partial Halo, Full Joy
Patricia L KeelinParticipantAh, nice one, Michael! Love that feeling of motion.

The Wind That Shakes The Barley
Patricia L KeelinParticipantA Water Elephant is just what was needed, Ruth. And how about we invite this fair creature from the land down under?
Elegant Emu
Patricia L KeelinParticipantSuch beautiful photos from everyone! While I haven’t much opportunity to post to this topic, I always enjoy seeing what everyone’s been sharing. Gregory, your sunset is like the quiet sigh as a good friend slips out of view. Ruth, in the soft blend of hues you captured in Just out My Front Door, I think you caught it at just the perfect moment before those luscious colors would have muddied, and Wine in the Water is an amazing shot. Hans, love the (clever) Moustache, and Leaving At Sunset really looks like that rosy curtain is coming down on the day. Michael, your pinks and blues absolutely shimmer.
I felt lucky to watch as this cloud appeared to release its spirit at the end of the day.
Giving Up The Ghost
Patricia L KeelinParticipantAh yes, Michael, ’tis indeed a playground—off the ground!

Floral Impression
Patricia L KeelinParticipantLooks like someone’s heard the welcoming song of your Big White Friendly Whale, Ruth—and he’s bringing along a Nudibranch to join the pod party (and maybe sing some harmony?).
The Whale And The NudibranchPS: Loved seeing your Montana sunrise over the river on the Gallery! What a beautiful start to the day.
Patricia L KeelinParticipantThank you, Gregory, and so good to see you here again with fine photo evidence of why we’re all ‘Hooked’’ on this topic.
Michael, the whole softness of feel with the touch of blue and the shadowed shape to its right makes #123 a real favorite.
Love the dark and light contrast in Just Fluffy, Hans. And a funny (talk about smooth) follow-up by Michael.
