I’m so glad you posted the retrospective as I missed a couple of them (although hope to go back). I really like the poignant photo “R” but all the photos are just stunning. You have a good eye for composition and light. Everything I’ve seen so far has been incredible. I’m happy to be able to do the virtual visit.
Thank you! Ellen L
