Hope you are well Etienne. We haven’t seen you for a while.

[Marloes]

Are you on a 365 holiday? I've been missing your shots and detailed comments! Hope you're okay!?

[bkb in the city]

Very interesting

[Lesley]

Wow I never knew. Great detail. It reminds me of a song my father used to sing, called “I’m shy, Mary Ellen, I’m shy” but he always used to change Mary Ellen for Hairy Melon 😀

@shutterbug49, @stimuloog, @tinley23 Hello Shutterbug, Hello Marloes, Hello Lesley. I hope you are well. I just want to say thank you for the enquiry messages that you posted on some of my pictures after I suddenly suspended my project a few months ago. I am sincerely touched. It is comforting to see that, even if we have never met each other, our photography projects have created a bond of friendship and that we care for each other. During that period, I have been struggling with an unexpected health issue (not the covid), and I am not over it yet. I will have a try at posting and commenting during the coming days, and see how it goes. I wish you the best for 2021. Cheers. Etienne

You just made my day. What a wonderful way to start the year. I am so glad to hear from you. Get better, don’t worry about posting every day. Glad you are back.

[Marloes]

Hi Etienne, Thank god, you're still around! Struggling - that's too bad...- but still around, on 365 and the earth! I wish you all the best and a steady recovery! Take care and not bother about posting or commenting! Carpe diem (my motto) and try to enjoy life as much as possible. I wish you all the best! Inhale your beautiful views!

[Lesley]

@etienne So sorry you’re not well. I do hope you start to recover very soon. I’ve definitely missed you and your beautiful landscape photos. Take care and Happy New Year.
