I have to say..this was a very, very long, cold, snowy and boring winter. We've skipped the spring and moved right to the summer, but never mind - it's warm again and the sky is blue.. I'm pleased

Thanks Korry - this may be helpful for others to know as well!
Those are some nice colors

Is that a straight from the camera jpeg?
Thank you, vlad
Yes, those are original colors..but I'm boosting my colors a bit in camera settings
I am evil. But would you consider some manipulation?
Those are great, Don!
Still, I like seeing my photos as - photos, not as photomanipulations, so I'll leave that kind of postprocessing to others

You are not alone feeling that way. Nice pics, Korry.
It is very interesting to see what you can do with a photo, though!
Thank you kNox! I wish it was from an airplane - that would mean I'm off to vacation
