Hi again Forum Folks! Been gone about 3 weeks from here... my job lately has taken on a life of it's own, and seems determined to take mine too. I've missed this place, and my camera too. But, this evening as I was sitting on my back deck having a beer or two while the sun was going down, these two images caught my eye, and made me run for my camera. Nothing heart stopping, but it sure felt good to shoot something again. There was this big leaf deep in the shadows, but a bit of sunlight somehow got through, and all of a sudden lit it up. A little PS on this one, but just some seasoning to bring out what was already there.
