Amazing views Sylvia! I love the reflection of the sun on the water.
Beautiful shots of great variety. The last one is my favorite.
As usual, I enjoy the both the quotes and the photos.
You always manage to capture such beautiful scenes! We really have had nothing but grey skies and snow - and so much cloud cover we haven't seen any sunrises or sunsets...
Have a wonderful week!

These are some great shots...I saw earlier you posted your 150 word short story. I was unable to get over and read it. I don't see a link to old posts? Am I just blind?
