    Barbe, I laughed when I saw it. You never know what auto correct will do!!

    The tall ships are beautiful and that hospital ship is wonderful.  Thanks for sharing.

    Apparently my brain also auto-corrects, as I never even saw the HDTV thing until Barbe mentioned it!!!  :)  Then I had to go back a read it a couple times before my brain didn't do it's own auto-correction!!

    I noticed it and thought perhaps she watched the cruise on her HDTV because she hadn't been on one.

    Here's one of my favs....a cloudy night when we thought we wouldn't get good pics down at "our" bay. This one was taken from inside hub's truck. The reflection you see is from the front hood of the truck! Love the sky ... I call it the "painted sky". Looks like mountains in there, but they are clouds too.

    Wow, that is really beautiful. There's a man here who only photographs in reflections. They are a little disorienting. Good thing he signs them to give a hit which way is up.

    Beautiful pics. Thanks for sharing. Irish I knew how to up load pics, not that I could compare to all the pics here.



    Hugs to all and my HDTV is home playing with the remote. You know that I am not allowed to touch it. Haha

    I can't really tell, but it looks similar to the butterfly bushes (which is not the real name I'm sure) I have in my front yard.

    I don't know what the light waves were doing to my camera.

    Lisa, VERY weird with the thermal reaction to your pictures!!! I have NEVER had that happen but it is SO beautiful!!!! I bet you couldn`t do that again if you tried!! Were you really low to the water????

    Marlegal, my screen didn`t show the reflection on the truck hood until I scrolled down. It`s a GREAT pic too!!!

    Barbe, I was on the sand about a foot from the ocean, so I guess I was shooting up..but there were very far away and the waves were breaking. I took it in between waves..they were splashing taller than I. You are right, if I tried to do it again, I bet I couldn't..oh I had a UV filter on my lenses...what do you think?

    Lisa, I was seeing it as THERMAL hot air waves distorting your pictures. Makes sense if you were low on the sand. I think the pics are STUNNING!!!! VERY painterly and probably not reproducible!! The one with the waves in the shot are clearer, possibly proving my heat wave theory.....

    Marlegal, your picture of the dragonflies is a real keeper.  I have never seen anything like that before.  Love it!

    Lisa - love the tall ships, I have always been fascinated by them.

    Thanks for the tries ladies on the tree, but it is none of those. I have seen all of them and this is nothing like any of them. I will try to get a better pic of the leaves and flowers when I get back to my pc. Using my iPad tonight as I did not want to get up and it was handy.



    hugs to all, AJ

    One of the residents here in our camping resort got a new camera recently and has taken some amazing pictures at our bay beach. This is the type thing we see everytime we go there, but I am always watching and never think to take my camera or pull out my phone at the right moment. Luckly, she did! Notice how many different species of birds are in this pic and the colors of the legs on some of them. She uses no filter or enhancement thingys...I checked!
