    Hi Steve, you certainly don't present them as scenes of a tragedy. They pop off the screen and the pages in all their euphoric exuberance!:D

    I think you've done a great job with these, and your framing of them (would like to know how you did that). They're fine examples of the hyperbolic, for which I have a definite and unbashful weakness!

    Technically they are very finessed.thumb.gif

    (...just thought I'd throw a few words around, mate, give 'em a bit of an airin' like!mwink.gif)

    Beautiful colors and compositions, especially #4. That flooding is unimaginable and sad, but it made for some nice landscape shots for you. I hope things are improving for everyone there.

    Thankyou lauren things are improving out here slowly the whole community has pulled together
    to rebuild from this disaster,some more unfortunate than others but we will get there.

    Its just a scary situation as we still have another 8 weeks of storm season left to contend with.
