Good "watercolors" - I particularly like the canal.

I' love to see your Italian hill town rising out of the mist shot with a treatment like this.

Hi Erik,

Here 'tis. It may lack sufficient detail to really work well as "watercolor." And one from Venezia.

Stuart and Tim,

Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. I've been using it as my desktop for the last 2 weeks, as I find the colors and patterns very soothing, yet stimulating.

Regards,

Den

I translate Japanese for a living, so I'd like to explain this photo. It says "We have glasses for seniors (elderly people). Please ask a staff member if you need them." Japanese love cute things, which explains the dog.

I am in awe of anyone who can read/write Japanese - thanks for the translation!

I did know about the Japanese predilection for "CUTE", and have a few favorites such as:

Yep, somebody beat me to it. Reading glasses for seniors (if you forgot to bring yours).
 
There was a bright object behind this hummingbird. I was curious how the image would come out, so I aligned myself this way. And the bird was kind enough to stay around for a few seconds.

Fairholme range taken from Vermillion Lake, Banff National park. This is my favourite photo. I have a large framed B & W hanging on the wall and enjoy looking at it frequently.

Without the cloud the little peaks get lost in the mountains behind.

B & W was 24th out of 100 in recent National Parks challenge

The reproduction here doesn't fully give it justice, there is more detail in the darker trees.
