Well, as you can see, this image isn't the collage I planned on! In fact, I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that it's from my phone! I did touch it up in Photoshop but I have to admit that the pictures I get from my Samsung are really quite nice, so I thought, "Why not post this picture for today?" I was really running late and it was obvious that a collage wasn't going to happen at this rate. It occurred to me…wait a second. Yesterday's picture was a view of the Upper Table Rock from our back deck, so why not post a picture from the top for today?! Who needs a collage anyway?!!! :D So here we are!

I do want to add though, that my hike up the Upper Table Rock was just as wonderful as I knew it would be. I took Steve's camera with my 100mm macro lens, and had a lovely time taking pictures as I went. I really did try to restrain myself, I did! However, I ended up with over 50 "keepers" after chucking duds and extras. Trying to choose about ten of them for my collage turned out to be troublesome at best, and so I decided to abandon the idea. I plan to post some of the nicer ones in the days to come. This will also solve my problem of finding interesting subjects on my property. Of course they are everywhere but I've burned myself out to some extent (to subject matter on our property) and being able to use pictures I've captured on my trip up the Upper Table Rock trail will make me a very happy girl! Plus, there are lots of cool images and they deserve to be seen alone and not in a collage! :)

I'm cutting my usual bloggish diatribe short because I would like to post this picture before it's ridiculously late, and I'd like to spend some time visiting everyone who has taken the time to leave comment on my picrtures! Thank you all!! :)

A lovely scene, the mobile phone cameras certainly can give good results.

A window into your world, my friend, and for free we steal it and keep it in a secure place where we can visit any old time we wish. I wish you have a restful and inspiring Thursday. I don't know Pam, but I am sure she feels your love and positive vibes going her way.

Oh wow this is absolutely gorgeous Janet - being able to see this view near to your home - aren't you the lucky one? This is indeed a fabulous photo - and the fact that it was taken by your phone is fantastic. In fact nowadays, some phones are better than some cameras

Thanks so much Jenny! :) Yes, one of the selling points of our home was the view and proximity to these two monuments for easy access to hiking trails! And thanks on the phone picture--it was ALSO chosen with the knowledge that it takes super pictures, hooray! And yes, phones are getting better and better at delivering awesome photography. I'm so happy that I could use this image for my Pam picture! :)

Stunning scenery and beautiful light and atmosphere to this image Janet. That is an impressive image and I was surprised to hear you took it on your phone! I must admit I never use the camera on mine but I am thinking now I should give it a try. If the results are even half as good as this I will be pleased. Have a lovely evening.
