My kind of boots!!!!!  Loved these.  Seen (and shot) through a window of a shop on the wooden sidewalk in Virginia City, Nevada.

Dedicated to all my women friends out there in Smugmugger Land that LOVE shoes & BOOTS!!!!

Thanks so much for all your wonderful comments on my photos the last few days.  I really appreciate them all very much!!  Sorry I'm missing on comments this week but this business trip is keeping me hooked up to the job for more hours each day than I can sometimes deal with.  But rest assured, it's ok and I will catch up on comments of your photos this weekend.

Smugmuggers ROCK!

Virginia City, Nevada from the second floor of one of the main street buildings.  Like I said before, "Darn those telephone wires."  LOL

Loved this view and the many layers of land beyond me...

Hope you enjoy too.

Have a memorable day today my friends!

Fire in the Sky!

As seen at a recent car show.  Untouched, uncropped - SOOC.

Here's an earlier shot of the sky before it got so brilliant: http://lgood.smugmug.com/Other/Daily-Photos/12484643_NvHx9n#!i=2328481892&k=52W8SVK

Happy New Year Everyone!!!!

This should be titled "Fire in the Sky" - so I suppose that's what I'll call it.  This is uncropped and untouched.  Taken at a car show last year.  I've been mining some of my old photos and thought I might post this one.  There's another, even more dramatic shot of this amazing sky here:  http://lgood.smugmug.com/Landscapes/Landscapes/7752506_6SJGFF/#!i=2328490601&k=ntLHkvD

Both photos are SOOC.

I certainly have appreciated and enjoyed the many notes that I've gotten from you on my absence from the Daily Community.  I'm going to try to get back into the swing of it as I can, I may miss a few days - but I know you all understand.  Work is crazy and I'm still traveling nearly every week.  I've not had much opportunity to take photos of any great interest, but hopefully will get back to it soon.

As always, thanks to this community of friends, I learn so much from each of you.

Young love, enjoying nature - 'nuff' said.

SOOC - it was a hazy day, so the background isn't sharp, but I think that adds to the vastness of the area.

Although I've been missing from the Daily Community, I've been mining old shots and adding them to my other galleries, hope you have time to check them out.

HAGD friends,

2011 Trip to New Mexico - on the way home back to Texas, we went through a little town called Melrose.  We spotted this depot and stopped and explored for awhile.  It was quite lovely with stucco exterior walls, red tile roof and the window frames were tourquoise blue.  Very interesting architecture/

"The Grand Tetons are magnificient, majestic mountains rising up from the valley floor, surrounded by evergreen forests and lakes that shimmer like jewels. These snow capped, granite pinnacles will leave you feeling rejuvenated by seeing yet another one of nature's spectacular beauties! " ~ Unknown

From one of the meadows near Jenny Lake in the Grand Teton National Park.  This was taken late one afternoon as the sun set, and the sky was threatening rain.  What a glorious place this country is!

Bill is doing remarkably well after his rotator cuff surgery.  Thanks for your kind wishes and prayers.

Have a beautiful day today my friends!

"I thank you God for this most amazing day, for the leaping greenly spirits of trees, and for the blue dream of sky and for everything which is natural, which is infinite, which is yes."  ~ e. e. cummings 

We saw a good number of trees like this that we guessed must have been a part of fires in the park at sometime in the past.  I am not sure what kind of pine trees these are, but I really loved this view of the trees that had been burned, the new green growth of young trees amoungst them, all set against the pretty blue hills behind.

Bill's surgery on his shoulder (rotator cuff) went well, he's in a lot of pain - I'm taking him to physical therapy this morning and taking him back home again afterwards.  He's great of spirit.  Thanks for your good wishes - I'll do my best to comment today........probably while he's napping.  Smugger's are the best friends, thanks again for all you good wishes, prayer and comments - they really lifted mine & Bill's spirits throughout the day.

Have a blue-sky kind of day today my friends!

Another shot of this beautiful mineral hot springs in Yellowstone.  I'm posting this one so that you can see the apparent depth of the pool.  Gorgeous.
