I'd bet my walker, Bruce, and my mal-functioning bionic leg (and maybe even part of my AI brain), too, if I had any of those, that you're no lamer than the bass-ackward title and text I wrote to accompany this pic. And if you won that bet --which you surely would-- just think! If you had just half the lameness of what I wrote, you'd be ALL set! Talk about a win-win situation for you... Hoo-eeeee! SCORE!!!

Here's the thing: I'd been at this place --a fifty or so yard stretch of burned down riverbank-- a few days earlier and I'd shot some stuff I liked while also seeing stuff I'd like to shoot when the light and the conditions were maybe a little more conducive, so that's what I did yesterday evening. The image I posted is, I reckon, is the best of that, though I still see other possibilities for perhaps another time. But about the title and the text.....

In effect, I returned to what I 'visually' considered the scene of a crime. Like any proper arsonist would do, y'know? Only I'm not an arsonist, and I didn't start that fire. I SWEAR! (Fact is, that the burn was conducted legally --prescribed burns are done for several reasons around here; to cut down on potential fuels and to eliminate invasive species (of trees/weeds/pesky tourists, and etc.) that are a plague upon us. Hence: not a crime in any legal sense, but a crime all the same to someone like me who prefers stuff to look natural. Kinda bass-ackward, I know, but that's what and how my (partially AI mis-firing) mind came up with what I wrote. Call it an insider's inside joke? Sort of like how, in the winter it gets cold and you're outside and your nose starts to run, and somebody looks at you and thinks it's funny but its snot.

DANG that evil autocorrect! I really meant to write it's not. Autocorrectum culpa! Maxima culpa!!!

Oh. And it is (or at least it was yesterday when I posted the post) April 1st, too. You know.... April Fuels Day!

MOST excellent, Long!!!!!!!!

<Edit:> Doug, Wasabi, Tommy..... you get points, too. But you don't get as many points as Long gets. Sorry 'bout that.

Nice image.

Excellent.

Very interesting photo. Presume of the Colorado River ???

Cany143 Loc: SE Utah

Yup. It's the Colorado.

Unless some tricksy and miscreant-ing April Foolster swapped it out for the Mississississsissssiiiippi or the Danube or the Nile in the middle of the night as a way to mess with us Moabites. Which April Foolsters are sometimes known to do.

Nice shot Jim.

I see that poor tree is still relying on its came.

But in all seriousness, I do like this image much better. The color, light, depth of details, depth of scene, is so much better. I thought the previous image was not up to your usual standards (it was kind of flat). This one is. I applaud your vision and understanding of light.

That was Otto Incorrect - he got you again...

Odd title and description, but really nice photo
