I like the framing, think your brother did a good job, how are you doing Mary?
Mary MacADNski: Thanks on behalf of my brother. I drove my car on Friday for the first time since Christmas Day so I'm progressing. I had another surgery after the shoulder so it's been a very eventful winter.

Nice ducks.
Love the snow-drift, caught in the bullrushes in the foreground.
Mary MacADNski: All that disappeared in a couple of hours. It's that time of year.
Beautiful framing including curves of the bay.

Very nice shot!
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Remi.

It really IS a family affair, Mary. You, Cath and your brother. WOW. I really like that (which, as I've told you, is like my own family, even though my photography brother is now deceased).
Mary MacADNski: This brother is very talented and specializes in sunsets. Wow!
Splendid! I like the framing with this curve heading to the ducks. Well done Alf! Thanks for sharing it Mary.
Mary MacADNski: I thank you for him, Richard. He will like your kind words.

Lovely shot by your brother Mary.
Glad to hear you are getting aroundtongue
Mary MacADNski: I'm happy to be getting around!

See! proper snow.. that's more like it! Glas to see that there is some open water free of ice for the ducks. Say thanks to Alf, please.
Mary MacADNski: The pond has been open for a month and our snow had mostly disappeared. This was one of those couple inches over night that disappears the next day - poor man's fertilizer they call it. i will be talking to my brother tonight and thank him.
Nice one Alf. And no violencesmile By the way Mary, thought you might be interested..I have just been putting together an MP3 compilation to play as background at the wedding reception. Great fun with old singles, and CDS. Now have 1 CD 6 hours long with over 100 songs..The last one Your Song by Elton John!
Mary MacADNski: The violence had just finished as a matter of fact. One of my favorite things to do, Bill, is make cd's. I think I told you that already. When you have lots of music to choose from you can match any mood or situation. Have fun!!
