Noticed this splash of color down at the bottom of my yard. Thinking maybe that light color branch coming from lower left corner ought to be cloned out??

    Oh that looks so hopeful. 113 here today! A very lovely picture. The branch does not bother me so much but let's see what it looks like without.

    Thanks for stopping by Eia. Here is the image without the offending branch. I think it's improved.

    Howdy Jack,

    Is the weather turning that fast up there? Is that a Sumac?

    Getting ready for the NS Trip, everyone but me is looking forward to the Cooler temp:D
    Take care,

    Hi Jack........It's a much better picture with the branch taken out.... I'm not a real fan of a square format. Did you try it with a portrait format.....

    It's a nice shot..... azzaro

    Yeah it's getting down into the low 50's at night but warms up to the high 70's low 80's during the afternoons. Those are staghorn sumacs...very abundant hereabouts.

    Be looking for a PM regarding NS tomorrow.

    Hey Jack,

    I like the edited version better. That orange does stand out.

    Keep the sumac, but send the cooler weather down our way :D , please.

    Nice photo and I too like it better without the branch too. Sumac turns such a pretty red.

    I don't want fall to come, but its going to isn't it :cry We've been in the lower 40's --- burrrrrr even had to put on the hubbys hunting coat to take the dog out yesterday morning. The dew on the ground looked like frost.
