Cotton Candy

I'm so out of the loop--don't even know if there is an EOTB out there, but this photo is too old to even be considered. I took this shot about a year ago in Fernandina Beach, FL where the paper mills run all the time and this is some of the exhaust in the air. It's striking and beautiful, if not downright smelly. But it provides industry for the entire area, so for that I'm thankful. Once the mills go, the only people able to afford that area will be, well, people who have money...

I don't know if you can see, but there are gulls flying in there too. I'm on my laptop, so it's hard to see.

And thanks every so much for comments. I can't reciprocate--May is Maddening. This coming week, say a prayer for me. One week of school left--that's 5 days to get my act together. :)

Yeah, I know, you are laughing at that prospect.
It might be an old shot, but I like it - and good luck!

A wonderful shot, that smoke is so dense. I couldn't spot the gulls, but perhaps it's time to get glasses!

At first glance I thought it was clouds!! Even better that it isn't. Couldn't find the gull but with my eyes I am lucky to see the smoke!!

Hang in there, sista!! It is almost over for the year. (;

@grammyn I've been a bit in the dumps because I'm overwhelmed. Never a good feeling; even thinking of stopping 365. :(

@darylo Oh no!!!! You can't do that. Your photography is getting so good. I'll meet you there( in the dumps) and well have a pity party royale and then we will put our big girl panties on and deal with whatever needs dealing with!!!! (;

Love the pic! Feeling the same way as you. A lot going on & don't have a lot of time to take pics or comment. Hate when I blow up the site with my weekend shots. Hang in there!

@grammyn I will look forward to that. I hate to complain. But I like dealing with friends who can help see the forest beyond the trees. Thanks dear friend.;)

@kathysview I never worry about the feeds being clogged, just an fyi. We'll keep at it as much as we can.

@darylo it is not complaining it is venting and that is what friends are for!
