G'day all
The largest gallery for a while gets us off to a great start for 2015.
The most intriguing image for me is Dario's 'Those Eyes' - just
brilliant - but I also really like Jack's 'Graphic thought' and Henk's
'Tree Zombie - look closely and you'll see it!.
Lots of other good stuff
The two I liked most :
Frozen by Don Guthrie
Framed by Ann Sanfedele
There was another one as well but easily noticeable sensor dust ruined it a bit.
Thanks to Brian and all who contributed.

Hey Larry,
I'm not terribly up on the Mac Mini, but it appears to me that you CAN
put one monitor on the HDMI and the other on the Thunderbolt port (as
Paul has on his MacBook Pro). However, the HDMI port will support only
up to 1920-by-1200 resolution. The Thunderbolt port will support up to

My faves list is too long, but my faves-of-the-faves would be Ann's

Way to go, us! :)

I've barely had time to pick up a camera for the past week. And I didn't have
time for my Saturday morning walk yesterday. But I did run down to the cafe to
enjoy a quick breakfast with some friends, and I brought the camera with me. It
only takes a moment…

Thanks
It's a really good gallery. I'm not going to pick any favourites in case ann
gets big-headed.
I don't normally like 'abstract' photography because a) it's never abstract and
b) it's normally just a case of 'can you tell what this extreme close-up is?',
for this gallery I'll make a rare
excellent gallery this month,
Dave

Indeed. In the case of ectomorphs like me, 10 minutes is a prolonged
abstinence!
