Luck!<br /><br />Ratty: I agree...I think it takes more talent as a photographer to do animals and birds too, because you have unwilling subjects who are shy and don't stand still. ha I find them very gratifying to take because of that.<br /><br />Tatyana: Thanks so much..I was so happy when those brief sunbeams came out...I didn't have long to capture them and am so glad I did!<br /><br />Meresi: I so agree with you.The Retired Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466803019073952351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-64751382888445598412010-06-08T04:14:09.443-04:002010-06-08T04:14:09.443-04:00What glorious reminders of the beauty Mother Natur...What glorious reminders of the beauty Mother Nature put at our feet. If only we knew how to take better care of it!<br /><br />I looked at the bird images from the Gulf at the New York Times. I cried. I am so mad that companies who make enormous profits were allowed to skip expenditures that would have protected what is our common good. I cry for my children and am ashamed of being part of a generation that let this happen.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-76285007761158264742010-06-08T00:43:09.504-04:002010-06-08T00:43:09.504-04:00I love Florida!

I had little opportunity to study and so they learned foreign languages. But there is a possibility through GOOGLE to translate comments and texts from other languages. It is precisely because there are differences in the syntax of any language, but you know some things. Copy the text do you want to translate, go to the Google home page where it says language tools and paste the text you! Translate all languages. Try it! Again thank you for your comments. If we get the translation will send you too! Thanks, Dimitris.Dimitris Kalatzishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10055883654669492699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-80945894911592057812010-06-07T00:35:59.846-04:002010-06-07T00:35:59.846-04:00Fabulous, super fabulous, sunset photos.
