THE THINKER

Posted by Anne (White Rock, Canada) on 6 December 2007 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

Thanks a bunch to all of you who post when I have been sick. Still have a lot of catching up to do, both on the home front and on the blog - but will get around as much as I can to post!

If you like my portfolio would you go to Photoblog Awards and vote for me. Also clicking on the VFXY button or here then click on the star on the top left. (Thanks to everybody who clicked on the VXFY link a few days ago - my rating has gone up a bit.
Have you checked out the unofficial Aminus3 Members Forum yet?

Well! I am back and missed being away so long due to ill health. It was a bit of a struggle to find energy to stay on my computer and post. My daughter Lesley and her husband Robin, gave me this wonderful gift of a cruise to Alaska and Lesley and I had a whale of a time! I could just live on that ship - absolutely wanted for nothing! Hope to hear from you all! Don't know how much I can get around posting comments - so will probably have to keep them brief - but will try to get around as much as I can! Thanks to all my friends for their good wishes!

Please go ahead and give me constructive criticism where needed! I am a bit out of practice at both taking and editing decent photographs - so help me if you can!

@Dimitrios: Thanks Dimitrios! You are right of course - and I don't worry about great numbers of comments here any more. I found it impossible to get around everyone I used to visit on the blog - just to get more comments back - so I visit when I can! It would be an almost full time job to visit and post thanks to everyone. I found that constructive criticism to improve our photos is pretty much lacking on here. So we started a constructive criticism topic on the unoffficial aminus3members forum Unfortunately, it was just getting interesting but have not contributed to that either whilst I was sick! :-)

Outstanding capture, Anne!! So glad you're doing a bit better. I know that bug was nasty. It's still hanging on a bit with me... and I've been taking my vitamins!! LOL

@amy: Thanks Amy! Yeah! So am I. Only trouble was my best friend Peter went down with it whilst I was visiting for dinner. It was such a sudden flu! Trouble was it was the night that our big snowfall started! I couldn't get across to my building because I had gone in shoes that slip on wet smooth surfaces or snow. (Steep hill up to his building) Anyway, he took to his bed for three solid days, and I was concerned because he wouldn't even get out of bed to get some water. So I was up there a lot. I was able to get back and forth the next day because the management had brought a small plow around all he walkways. But they had to give up till it stopped snowing that day. And, by the time I had to go back home again it was knee deep. Thank the Lord I had good boots on then, to wade through it back and forth. Never was so glad to see the temp rise, and heavy rain after a couple of days! I am still so damn tired tho' , and can't breathe through my nose yet from the bad cold that led me to pneumonia before the flu' . Talk about one thing after another - Murphy's Law! So glad the t you are over the worst - was it a cold or the flu'? ;-)

I hope you are feeling better. I'm in the midst of my annual bout of Bronchitis myself.

This is such a cute pose he/she is giving you. I had the same thought "the Thinker" when it opened.

@Laurie: A lot better thank you! But still getting awfully tired! Glad you liked the photo. Take care of that bronchitis - don't get pneumonia!!!!! Have you got antibiotics for it?
