So true, Pat. Luxury cars now days are just functional and not very creative. Even the cars of the 50's had detailed hood ornaments. Speaking of which: What do you call a Christmas ball clipped to the top of a KKK's face covering? A hood ornament.

Groanandgroan - bad joke Marty, but I loved it.

Hi Tim,
Yes, a big thank you to Pat G. for a very creative challenge!
By the way, those green swirly things that reminds me of characters out of a Dr Seuss book, are they remnants of Clematis flowers? I haven't seen those since we moved to California from NJ.

You got it, Martyo! They are indeed the remnants of
our clematis vine/flower.

Nice ones Tim. I see she's talking as usual!
Just went to check and our two annual visitors are here again. Spring has sprung.

Thanks, Ron. I grabbed a new camera, so I
really didn't have time to fiddle with it, so there's
quite a bit of noise...next time, I'll be ready with
my trust Canon!

p.33 Tim, you are just too kind. I'm

. Thanks for participating and being a cheerleader! Those last 2 images are out of this world - crisp, clear and great color.

Thanks so much, Pat, and I'm really glad you liked those images.

I had to include that very last "abstract" of Sally parasailing...it's
one of my favorite images ever!

Ha - still have the MG. In fact, it's warmish today and I was going to see about getting it out. Kills my leg and back to drive it but same pain is worth having.

Well, you can always let your grandson drive...

Nice finale Tim Love how you worked the last Image..pg. 33

Thanks so much, Lesley. As I just mentioned
to Pat, that abstract is one of my favorites...
...after all, it started out as an image of Sally
parasailing.

Oh my! I am sorry I missed your EVENS challenge Pat! What great examples you and everyone else had!
Here are a couple...yup... had to look for them! LOL!

The sandhill cranes...two birds but I think the fact that the one has its wings open it creates the odd effect..??

Thanks Roxiemarty. Just so you know I put the butterflies into the scene. I used one butterfly that I photographed a couple of times and placed them into the photo multiple times.
