Photography is another form of art, but one requiring less sheer creation skills, although certainly another sort of vision, visionary sense... Although in my case it is often alot of trial and error... And luck also, or persistence, in seeking out material worthy of being photographed... Hope you are getting out plenty into the wilds of California now that the weather is cooling off a little...Owenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12622587942009516590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8855510751016957422.post-77328684142681489062010-09-03T05:51:45.366+02:002010-09-03T05:51:45.366+02:00Hi Clytie,
