    Not a leaf in site on this crepe myrtle Doug but it's the bark on these trees that provide much of their beauty. Cheers J.

    From a country that's grey, grey, grey, it's remarkable how colourful Charleston is, even in the midst of winter. A nicely composed shot.

    Your photograph has a wonderful spring feel to it; love these yellow flowers in the back.

    Love the layers of color and texture on this one. Really brightened up a dreary Oregon day for me!
