Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wife’s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update  January 2012: After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with its advancement – I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems. I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books.  Life marches on!  ÂÂ

Flew home from Calgary on our visit and saw this but didn't take a pic because I didn't have a 'slide' film!!! Lol. Nice shot Dana.

A place that brings to mind good memories of the Winter Olympics with victories by Alberto Tomba! Very nice shot , Dana !

Great POV, thx for sharing

I found some really old ones of these in Minnesota when I lived there; all out of wood and quite incongruous in the summer sunshine. These look quite modern and terrifyingly high! Great shot

Other than an excellent POV and lighting contrast, whatever I have to say about this unusual image has already been covered in the previous comments, Dana.

It really looks like something out of a sci-fi scene here at Renderosity or a surreal painting. Lol. Utterly fantastic looking. Beautiful shot, the colors are just wonderful.
