Thanks very much, Ross. This image made the back cover of my new book, and I was thrilled to see it there. This was the most amazing valley of blooming lupine that I've ever seen. New Zealand is the place to be in the first two weeks of December!

Thanks again! #3533819

You certainly have an inspiring gallery Jim... This is wonderful.. I love the perfect balance between forgraound and sky.. The colors really pop against the stormy sky... And your low perspective gives it an extra punch!
Wonderful...

Forgive me.. This is my first visit to your gallery... I love it.. #3789348

Thanks again - have a wonderful 2007! #3789388

I don't know where Waldo is, Jim, but with the DOF and clarity of this awesome capture I am sure Waldo will be found! #3980895

Thanks Sheryl and Ronald. I appreciate your comments.

(The "Waldo" in this case, Ron, is the photographer to the right of this inspiring scene... taking in the beauty... can you see her?)

Thanks again! #3981890

Rob Zuidema February 24, 2007

A question for you, where is the info on my membership? I was looking for how much longer my membership is good for and cannot find that information in my profile anywhere... #11103563

Karen ODonnell August 07, 2014

This is breathtaking! Just the pattern of light to dark is fascinating! #11103577

Beatriz Rocha August 07, 2014

Great colors and light! Which lenses have you used?
I also have a couple of administration question for you: 1) how can I see my contest monthly entries? 2) is registration to courses included in the highest membership level? If yes, is there a limit on the number of courses/year?
Thanks in advance and congrats on the site's revamp!

One more thing Jim, what does the "score" mean under our profile? #11103796

Deborah Lewinson August 07, 2014
