Absolute fabulous picture, those trees make the picture. Love the treatment so much. I will be careful today.....
Ginnie: Thank you, MLMA. You know how much I love this delightful city. And yes, please be careful today! smile
Lovely picture Ginnie. We are going to a wedding tomorrow. I'm taking the photographs, despite saying I would never do it again!
Ginnie: LOL, Bill, because just the other day Astrid and a friend of ours on Skype were confirming most vehemently that they would NEVER EVER shoot a wedding again. HA! Never say never, I guess? Just do it and have fun. This, too, shall pass!

and there's a lot of big fish in the sea! nice serene picture tho that doesn't go with my thoughts of being eaten alive by a big fish lol
Ginnie: Moving from the safety of the harbor into the sea is always a bit of a venture, Elaine, right? smile Thanks.

It's probably a misquote but I'm sure there;s a line in the film "Jaws" about needing a bigger boat when the shark is first makes this very special.
Ginnie: HA! Of course someone (YOU!) would think of JAWS! grin Thanks for the smile, Alan.

That touch of red and green is inspired, Ginnie
Ginnie: Thank you, dear Lisl.
Hele mooie opname!
Ginnie: Hartstille bedankt, Cor!
Ha ha... This reminded me of Moby-Dick!

Did you know that Moby-Dick was a huge sperm whale?!

"Swallow you whole", OMG - your Freudian slip or mine?! ;o)

Have a good weekend, G!
Ginnie: HA! I'm sure I am guilty of many a Freudian slip, LC. grin You, too, have a great weekend.
What a gorgeous shot, Ginnie. The water looks like molten bronze and the trees like lace. Best shot ever!
Ginnie: You're a sweetheart, Mary. Thank you.

Those trees look phenomenal Ginnie, for me this is tree friday.
Ginnie: Tree Friday it is, then, Chad. smile Thanks.
Guess what!?

In Japanese, "mobi" means "extremely", "something beyond comparison".

Moby-Dick, what a name! Ha ha...
Ginnie: As we say, LC, we learn something new every day! Thanks. smile
Superb Ginnie, love the lighting and treatment! Have a great weekend! smile

This is a delightful Boat Friday Ginnie
Ginnie: Thanks a million, Janet.
Wonderful light
Ginnie: Thank you kindly, Marie. Merci.
Fabulous capture and post processing! Even more so now that I've experienced that location too! Love it!
Ginnie: I can't tell you how much I love that you were there with us that day, Robin. Memories!
Perfection! If I were allowed to give it 10 Likeys I would, Ginnie, but I believe we are restricted to one per person. Sigh...
Ginnie: You sure know how to make my day, Beverly! THANK YOU.

It's a moody picture, Ginnie. First I found it somewhat sad but the longer I'm looking at it the more I see expectations in it. I'm waiting to see what comes next... smile
Ginnie: It does have a somber mood, Petra, but let me assure you it was a most glorious day when we were there! Thank you.
