Dead Leaf and Window Curtains, Old Farm House, Lewisburg, Ohio  © Doug Hickok

This leaf, miraculously clinging to the smooth surface of the front door glass, symbolizes the possibility of the "impossible". Many things once thought to be impossible have become reality... horseless carriages, telephones, television, exploring the depths of the sea, satellites photographing distant galaxies, the internet, laser surgery,
Doug having a photography blog...
What next!?

    Great, great shot Doug! I don't see the impossibility of you having a photoblog, your photos are too great not to be shared.
