Dear Ken, Steve, Kaye and Glenn,Thanks so much for your comments, and thanks for your continuing support, too. I also tried another crop that looks like he's posing for a head shot. I couldn't decide which one to include, so I let my family vote. #4132653

Great animal capture, Martie! Love the color and lighting. Would love to see more o your recent work. You must have been very busy.. :) #5239870Martie Last December 31, 2007
Thanks for taking the time to look! Yes, I was very busy! I started a new job after 20 years at the same school. I also went back to finish a post-Masters degree and have two students from Asia living in my house. Oh, yes, and my son decided to move home after college. I have been turned into a drooling idiot, but I finished my college work in December, so now I have time for photography again. #5273388Hurk (Steve) Hurkett May 24, 2008
