You make me blush, Marnie. I'm glad you liked it. I was a little worried when I saw the theme for January, as I don't take a lot of tree shots. I was actually looking for another shot, one of my daughter Claire climbing the very tree that provided the bark for this month's photo. When I saw this one, I thought it looked better than the one I was looking for. Now I have to find a "blue" shot for next month. That could be a bit harder... <g> thanks again, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
