Thank you Douglas.A month ago I had a serious car accident. The old man didn't notice me as I was approaching the small crossroad and he came right at me while I was passing through.The speed was about 100 mph then and all I managed was not to hit him right in the driver's seat. However, as a result of that my car turned and rolled over several times before it landed in the field. Grandpa survived without a scratch, but I ended up with three limb fractures, hematomas and a concussion. My car is completely wrecked but saved my life. I am slowly coming back to myself now.
I am so sorry to hear of your accident and injuries. I hope that you will regain full recovery without bad permanent effects. Glad your Grandpa had no injuries. From my own experience, please make sure that you follow your Doctor directions and do all of the Physical and/or Occupational Therapy to regain mobility and capabilities. It is going to be tough going for awhile, but you have to do the exercises. I also hope that your auto damage will be covered by insurance.

Hi Peire, I am sorry to hear about your car accident. Fortunately, you are on your way to recovery right now. I hope that you can pick photography back up. We missed you!

Joshua, love the reflections of the colors in the water.
Douglas, so beautiful and wonderful composition. I could get lost in those glorious colors.
Spent a little of time today chasing a Gulf Fritillary Butterfly.

Thank you very much, Birdie and sorry for the delay in responding.
Your images of the Gulf Fritilary butterfly are just stunning - I love them!
I too echo everyones sentiments and for a speedy recovery Peire. I certainly miss your wonderful photographs.
The first shot has been taken by countless amounts of tourists from many corners of the globe, I think I achieved something different in the last shot of Ayers Rock.

Thanks K-H for the very kind compliment, I do try to PP to give my images a more painterly look, occasionally I think I pull it off but sadly not always.
Yes, location is indeed Cornwall, this fishing harbour is more commonly known as Mevagissey in English but in Cornish it is called Lannvorek.
You had me looking up N.R. and his paintings...thanks for that :-)

Thank you so much K-H! I had to google Bienenstich and Zwetschgendatschi and I'm glad I did. I've added both to my to-shoot list. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you so much omrhsn, you are welcome.
I am always looking forward to your amazing culinary and visual creations!

I am wishing you fast and full recovery. I have also wondered why you have not posted in a while. 100 mph does not sound safe in presence of crossroads, did you mean 100 kph?
But doesn't it often seem that something not on hand is what we want!?
