Re: PESO - Tulip Blossom

Thanks Ann. This is the first year since 1999 that I haven't taken a single snowflake photo. I set up the work space but never even moved the camera outside. While it snowed a little in early December, since then it's just been too warm! I should of put an old photo in... Mark On 3/16/2017

Looking back in time

There were two pics that I was always enamored with. One was "Old Masters" Joseph J. McAllister http://pug.komkon.org/00marc/oldmasters.htm The other I can't find. It was an old man walking in the fog. I think it was in England. Anyone recall it? Same era as the Old Masters. -- PDML
