@gbe: Well, I have been pondering a self-portrait, even though I didn't make it on the appointed day.

Nicely isolated, the fuzzy green works as a background.

Fabulous! I do so love the detail here. I've been finding it hard to focus on "creativity" in this world wind economy and elections and such...got to get back to my fun...thanks for inspiring me once again!

@Sandy: I haven't been taking many photos either. I had to go to Austin on business last week though, and when I do, I always pass by this park. I had a little time on the way home so I finally stopped to check it out. I took a few photos and went back with my wife the following Monday. Otherwise, I've intended to take all kinds of photos, but I've barely touched my camera in the last month or so.
