Click here for my on-line journal: AS I SEE IT

It is NOT possible to select any favorite photos for 2008. I don't look at my photos that way.

My pictures are memories; entries for my journals. Many of them have special meaning and inspiration that may not be understood by the casual observer. They chronicle my journey through life and are bookmarks for magic moments which I want to remember forever.

So there are no winners; and no losers.

Some of 2008
in random order.

Music is: "Eternal Phoenix" by Hiroshima

other sizes: small medium original auto

Hi Dave, Bev Doolittle's artwork inspired this "Seek & Find" photo. http://www.pbase.com/cits_4_pets/image/110988079 Thought you might find it interesting. (a friend is on my horse) Is it too hidden???

well done! Happy New year to you two...

Bev Doolittle is a fantastic artist. A friend owned copies of a couple of her paintings and there is nothing to compare to them. This is what I once did the week between Christmas and New Year. This would be a wonderful puzzle to work on.

Dave, Outstanding shot of the puzzle and perfect music to go along with it... I know what you mean about your shots and personalized meaning... keeping on shooting! I look foward to seeing your 09 shots... Jv

I agree with the sentiment. And you did a great job of getting this without any glare!

Happy New Year to you both! Chris
