Great images Don and a great way to showcase them. I like the option to view full screen. Did I detect a hint of HDR on a couple of the images? Are the words your own?

Thanks James. Yes I do write a fair bit of poetry (about a dozen books--one coming out soon). I need platforms for poetry as well as photos.

I've caught up now Don. Should have done my homework before commenting. 'A fair bit' is probably an understatement. I like what I've seen of your poetry so far and have rushed over to Amazon to get A Clean, Regenerate Poem on my Kindle.

Some beautiful and cleverly composed images in there Don, I like them a lot. Unfortunately I don't share James' love of poetry. Nothing against your work, it's purely because I am an uncultured philistine!!
Happy Shooting people!

In a civilized, ideal world there must be a place for uncultured philistines...somewhere...surely!

I respect your right to not to like poetry as long as you respect my right to try to write it.
