The first shot intrigues me the most because from where I sit in the living room I can see out the kitchen window almost the same view of my garden. I have thought about taking that photo many times.

Am I just imagining it, or is there some magnificent quiet to go along with the groovy views. I thought I could almost hear the silence, but I might be wrong. Love seeing the bay out there past the arbor, and the teasels w/vines and sculptures is a place I know I could get lost for hours with a camera. Still, my fave may be the three spruces.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
