Dear Friends, this is a composite image resulting from 40 images taken with macro lens and a focus step approach, even at f16, the depth of focus was not sufficient to render all the details in this tiny group of green crystals, so i step focused with my Camranger and put the images together with photoshop, this tiny crystal cave is an area of about 1 square mm and the color of the rock around the crystal was a surprise, do you like? til Tomorrow MJ

Friends, green is hard to find this time of year in our country. Going back through my archives, these green images struck me. A storm was whipping across Crex Meadows, a green hummingbird, green background with yellow swallowtail butterfly, green tree abstract, and a hooded merganser swimming across a green pond. til Tomorrow MJ
Friends, thinking about traveling this morning and escaping the drab winter days of February and the upcoming winds of March. This green river was found in Yellowstone National Park but i don’t remember the name, is it important to remember the name? I do remember the feeling as i watched the water run by, of peace and joy at being out in nature on a wonderfully warm and sunny day. I wish you peace and joy, and patience while waiting for spring. til Tomorrow MJ
