Hi Y'all,

I saw this limpkin on a palm stump

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Even so Harry they don't come any better than that, well done once again. I love the clear skies you always seem to have. A vast difference from where I am in Scotland.

    Both, the ground has stopped me a number of times. Sometimes even when I'm sober.

    Nice Limpkin shots, Harry!
