Even though it's still Sunday night as I see this, Mary, I feel it has awakened me to Monday morning! I love it! smile
Mary MacADNski: I hope all that brightness didn't keep you awake.

What a cheerful shot!
Tom Waits...along with Mr Dylan, my favourite American musical poet...thanks, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: It's amazing with their "unique" voices that they made it but their poetry shone through. I love them both.

Oh, that is stunning colour and the focus is so crisp.
Mary MacADNski: We need that colour today. There is is 60% chance of flurries.
Aaw ! A great orange shot ! Bravissimo maestro !
Mary MacADNski: A happy warm colour, n'est pas?
Perfect choice for a wet and windy Monday morning. Glorious colour, and I can almost feel the sun. (:o)
Mary MacADNski: Still 5:30am here and I'm hearing the forecast. Cold, windy and 60% chance of flurries. Yup, good choice for here today too.

Great colour and I love the lighting on the bees wings. I'm intrigued by the song. It starts off like Auld Lang syne and then sounds like a cross between the fist Noel and Brahms lullaby. (I like it though.)
Mary MacADNski: That's his sound and he often borrows off of well known pieces.

Ah, what a fantastic colour, especially in so cloudy day as today! Great detail too!
Mary MacADNski: I think it's cloudy on both sides of the Atlantic today. Yeah for some colour.

Mary MacADNski: Seems that everyone has the same kind of weather today. How could I have known days ago when I uploaded this that it would be brightening the day of so many.

...i really like this...smile
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, lola. I'm pleased that you do.
Beautiful colours Mary.
Mary MacADNski: They are aren't they. Fall mums come in all sorts of lovely colours.
Very nice shot Mary. I like the colour and the reflection on the bee's wind
Mary MacADNski: The bees loved that plant and sometime seven or eight would be on it at once. They camouflage well though.
Very colourful, I'm in lack of sun !! That's great ! smile
Mary MacADNski: There seems to be a lack of sun everywhere today. Glad I could provide some.

Lots of flashy pictures today - great picture and detail. This is very good and can set you back right into summer.
Mary MacADNski: Seems that both sides of the Atantic have been having a dull,cloudy day so this worked to brighten things up a bit.

Wow, a much needed pick-me-up on a dull day Mary smile
Mary MacADNski: Seems that both sides of the Atantic have been having a dull,cloudy day so I'm glad when I uploaded it 4 or 5 days ago that it was well timed.

Absolutely gorgeous. Top notch!
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Ellie. It was a month old and sitting in my archives. I'd forgotten it in there.
A really lovely vibrant shot - just what's needed with the current weather in the UK which is grey, wet and cold (and some snow in a few places - which is very early here). Mike
Mary MacADNski: Seems we have the same weather on both sides of the Atlantic. Brrrr. Nothing will keep me in though. It's Tuesday Hike Day!
Great explosion of color! Very nice!
Mary MacADNski: Gracias, Jose-Angel.

I love this shot! And i so love yellow too! Awesome
Mary MacADNski: You had to go way back up see these. Thanks for delving into the archives. Most of my shots of the last two months are from my files because of a shoulder and arm injury but I'll be at it again with fresh shots.
