Many thanks, folks!

I have always liked these two images from the 'seldom seen' archives ...

Just a few more and then Sue can put me to bed with a warm milk, a rum chaser and an anagram of Gina Lollobrigida ...


SRGC 9 would have been quite a nice shot apart from the raindrop on the lens - it was taken in a storm!
SRGC 10 shows a mushroom that had an imprint of a leaf embedded upon it's surface. It must have grown like that for quite a while before the leaf dried out and presumably blew away.

All images captured in the Dolomites.

Cliff, aren't you well?  Sorry to hear it if you are....

Your last lot of images in the Dolomites are really haunting like a set for a dramatic story and maybe the Mushroom with the leaf imprint is the start of the tale  ::)

No, I'm fine Robin, but many thanks for enquiring!  My humour got the better of me once again ... my bedtime remark was simply an allusion to my great age and the fact that I had possibly exhausted myself by posting more than one image!   :D
You MAY (one day) get used to my humour ... many have not.   :D

Glad you enjoyed the opening lines of Withering Heights ...

Cliff,

Where are your manners.  Your wife I hope appreciates you, and she is after all an eternally young woman is she not?  If the answer to that question is "no" then maybe we can see why young women do not appreciate you?   ;D ;D :P

Cliff, just looked at this topic since weeks again.
Excellent pictures as always, but forgot my comments after reading this last page (took me another half hour of my valuable time  :( )
In my younger years I was more dreaming of ‘share in pool’  :D

I don't think that is an anagram, Luit ... but I certainly get your drift!!!   :D
