Hi Sharon, thank you for you compliments. And thanks for joining in with your wonderful contributions! I ran out of time myslef. It will only get more difficult until January, but this is the challengeing part of this project. Of course it is impossible to upload when out of town. Anyway, try some biscotti's, simple and easy recipes. Next I'll bake almond and cardamom biscottis AND cardamom bread this weekend. For Christmas, Mrs. Claus got me a Kitchenaide stand mixer early! (OK, it is for both of us) ;) Have a Merry Christmas, and have fun babysitting! Take care, Rob

said inuit1963 2006.12.16 at 06:23:03 PST

Very interesting album. The softness of the nature surrounding all these amazing structures that u have captured so well. I find framing, perspectives and playing with colour nice too. The sunlight makes some cool shadows too. Nice work

said waterl00 2006.12.21 at 03:43:55 PST

I enjoyed your colorful addition this week. It really brightens the mood Rob

said mtnets 2006.12.22 at 17:34:24 PST

Hi Sharon, nice album. I haven't made it to the Botanical Gardens this year. I've taken few pictures other than my grandkids this year. I did get out our first snow. I went to Baue Funeral Home in St. Peters and took pictures of the Swans. Had a wonderful time. I uploaded them last night. Have a Merry Christmas. Sandy in St. Peters, MO

said anttisarki 2006.12.29 at 06:44:26 PST

Hi Sharon, I should thank you and everyone else in participating in this fun challenge. This challenge has made my Friday mornings at the office more enjoyable while viewing all the albums. Many coffee breaks and lunch break are spent surfing the albums. This week was a challenge for me as well to get in my 3 pics. Oh, and I cheated with my macros...I use a tripod for a steady shot. It is very warm here, 35 degrees. Most of the snow has melted, the ice on our lakes is not looking good for walking on. Driving out and setting up our fishing shacks on our metro lakes is out of the question. Rain in our forcast, so strange this winter. Wishing you a great new year. Rob from MN

said mtnets 2006.12.29 at 06:58:56 PST

Hi Sharon. Great new shots today! I am glad about you have your hole family at your home for a week. So is happy holiday in all parts of the world. I invited all family to be on Christmas this year to us. I prepaired turkey, dumplings and pot-roasted red cabbage, it was tasty. For you again a Happy 2007 with much time for family and to take fotos!

said utehempel 2006.12.29 at 07:09:19 PST

Hi Sharon, Beautiful additions to your collection. It WAS wonderful having the grandkids & family around for the week. I trust you & Bob are thoroughly enjoying your family during the holidays as well. I have heard of Cabela's but have never been to one of their stores. Rochester, NY isn't big enough to merit one of these super stores of it's own so we have to travel to get there. It was great fun and I enjoyed wandering around with my grandson. I'm strickly a shooter with a camera but I do like to fish a bit. I'd rather be in a store that features canoeing, kayaking, camping and hiking gear. I hope you and Bob enjoy the New Year as well. Cheers, Ray & Lynne

Hello Sharon, I was just about to go away again when you created this album (great idea) & that is reason I have not been round before,this is my first chance to view. Great shots so far & now looking forward to the delights you will show us in the year to come. Enjoyed the butterflies, you live in such a great place to be able to pop out & see these wonders. Can I invite you to see my latest travel album to a plce colder than midwest USA in winter! LOL. It was a very special visit for me. Hope your year ahead is a good one for you & your family. Eric

Wow, Sharon, What a feast for the eyes your editions are for this week. Makes me sad that I didn't get the chance to visit the MBG while this glass art was being shown, but I have certainly enjoyed it through your eyes and lens. Great captures, my friend. Hugs, Susie

Hi Sharon, thanks everything for what you say.I didn't know that you were lover of the hydrangeas, however their color is given by the type of ground in which you/they are found, this depends on its composition and therefore the colors of the flower.If you want it waits and patience, makes then you a harvest.

Great timing and patience on your part. You must have walked very,very slow without the Dove noticing you..anyways that's how I have done..tiny little baby steps unless you have another method and if you do I would love for you to share that with me :D take care and I look forward to your next set of threes. -Thea

Hi Sharon, I have checked your album about 5 times today looking for an update. I finally just opened it and saw the photos were new, the zoo one fooled me. For some reason it still shows the last update on this album to be Thu, Mar 1, 2007. Now I better go back and check Rob's and David's. They too may have new ones and WS has the wrong date. Have a great weekend, and don't forget to spring forward. Hugs, Susie

Hi Sharon, lovely photos for this week's entry. Heavenly Florida Skis is beautiful. The little girl on the beach is very lucky, too chilly for that here yet, and I really like the lake tropical setting, your right, it is tropical looking ! Warm wishes from Canada ~Vickie~

Hi Sharon & Bob, Don't vacations fly by so quickly? I read some of your blogs and am glad you both had a wonderful trip. Even if Bob had to suffer sitting through a week of ball games lol. Welcome back! We're all glad to see you back in the challenge.

said rrayr55 2007.03.31 at 19:50:52 PDT

Welcome back, dear Sharon and Bob! Thanks for your three wonderful photos from Florida! Isn't it amusing that just, when you were in Florida, one of your ancient photos from Florida was featured in "travel"? We think that soon, more photos will follow! But first, you will be busy with unpacking etc... and hundrets of e-mails! Big hugs, Heinz and Kaethi

Hi Sharon. By gosh, that was a quick trip! Glad to have you back safe and sound and great to see these few photos which combine to tell a wonderful story of your time away. Thanks a heap for your generous comments on my three offerings and I look forward now to NEXT week!! Hugs, Peter

Hi Sharon! I came to your site again to see if you had a new album from your trip. Let me know when you get the spring training images posted. LOL Greetings and hugs from, OKLAHOMA. Susie

Hi Sharon, this is such a beautiful album. I really like it. Thank you for sharing it....Claudette

Hi Sharon! Loved the MBG images. Outstanding as usual. We went to Ardmore, today to the park and I took about 65 images and still ended up using the ones I took of the Maple tree by the fish pond at home. I wanted to wish you and Bob a joyous Easter weekend. Hugs, Susie

Hi Sharon, I'm glad your prognosis was very good. I'm also happy to know the tissue was benign. I'm confident that you knew the Lord was with you each step of the way. Beautiful photos this week. The garden shot is so pretty. Everything is greening up very nicely. Enjoy your trip to the botanical gardens next week. I'll look forward to seeing some photos of your visit. Have a very happy and blessed Easter Sunday. If Christ had not risen then we are without hope and left to dispair. God bless you and Bob. Ray

Hi Sharon I find it hard to put into words what a great shot your clownfish is, I love the woodpecker and the tulips are lovely but the other shot is simply oustanding and it can't have been easly...I hope you and Bob have a great week...Sandra
