2015 was a very productive year for me because I spent many hours every week roaming the countryside. Sadly, I no longer have any of the originals from that year, so these are from my UHH "cloud storage" - as posted back then.
Thanks for viewing and hope they made you smile!

Very cute, enjoyed them!!!!!
Nicely done, Linda. What happened to your originals?
Thank you for your comments and smiles, Architect, Johnnie and Ken! Ken, I'm so embarrassed to say, but I will since we're friends
One day in 2016 I was downloading pics from my SD card when I received a notice that there wasn't enough room on my hard drive to copy them all.
First of all, I was shocked that the computer could be that full and still be booting up! Second, I was disgusted I had let it get that way (it was "only" a 256 gb drive, purchased before I got really into raw shooting and saving huge psd files). So, rather than shutting it off and running to Best Buy for an external drive, I just deleted everything from 2015
I had already deleted most of 2014 and earlier before I purchased that computer because I figured I wouldn't miss them. And I'd never be interested in re-editing or viewing in the future...
I was wrong in sooooo many ways.

Love them all Linda, they certainly are very appealling.
Lots to like about those images. Too bad about the originals!

Sylvia and Mike, thanks so much for stopping by. Fun to remember the circumstances since many of my critter shots (eagle nest being the major exception) have been the stumble-upon, slam on brakes kind

Yeah, I do that with plants along the road. "hey what was

All very unique shots Linda, and I'm glad your edited versions are still available.

Thanks very much, Sandy! The cost of "UHH online storage" is quite reasonable

Well, that's true.
Actually, a few years ago we saw a huge field of Gentian in bloom and made the decisions to drive ahead to a parking lot and then work our way back in foot rather than pulling off to the side of the road. After all, they aren't going anywhere, right? In the ten minutes that it took to do that the sky clouded over, and when the sky clouds over some blossoms close up. Gentians, for example.

Absolutely nothing wrong with reruns especially when they're this enjoyable, Linda! In fact, I'm going to post some of my beach pics revisited in the near future. I look back at my stuff from several years ago and am dismayed by my processing at that time. lol Cute critters and beautiful shots!
