Description

"And in the end it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." --Abraham Lincoln

I've been holding onto this photo for a while. I meant to use it as part of a series I would do on the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Boca Raton. But with the festive red lanterns, I felt it was appropriate to post it in honor of the Birthday of our current GoM and one of my Hawaiian buddies, Dave (Punaguy). Aside from being a really great guy (and a fellow M.A.S. member), he is an amazing photographer and a visit to his gallery will always inspire me AND make me feel like I'm on vacation. ;'] Aloha & Happy Birthday Dave! ----- Thanks for stopping by and for your reflective comments on my last photo, Twilight Reflections - For Egmont.

Very nice photo. I like very much that you kept only the red color and set the others down to B&W. It gives the photo a spectacular touch !
