PESOs (4) - Central Severne

2018-10-19 Thread Rick Womer

Alan, I like this a lot. The elephant stands out from the background, yet the photo makes clear that the giant animal is a very small part of a much larger (threatened) ecosystem. The textures and colors are interesting and work very well. Great shot! Rick > On Oct 19, 2018, at 2:21 PM,

A few thoughts from the Boffin Igor :-) 1. Gmail behaves as follows: any outgoing messages is saved under the "Sent" tag (tags are similar to folders in other mail programs and online services, but in case of Gmail, one message can belong to more than one Tag). Even if you Cc: to yourself,
