reaching the summit

another shot from yesterday's photo walk. it's unbelievable how there's a forest in the middle of this big metropolis! it had been raining overnight and the path was so eeky muddy, there are dead leaves all over which makes for a slippery walk. it's unbelievable, too, that in the middle of all these, there's a little bridge over the ramp going in to one of the city's busiest arteries and i was doing vertical panning shots. not of any consequence but some heads were shaking, i noticed.

after almost three years, i have to be a certified 365er. i was first to see snails on top of dead thistles like this one, things we would normally take for granted. or a tennis ball amidst the patch of some squash-like shrubs, or snails on the race oval near the soccer field.

and in my head i'm playing with the idea that maybe i should form a group for next year's photowalk with the requirement: must be 365.

and by the way, how come those photogs never heard of 365 project? are they for real or what?

thank you for your kind visits and comments; i do appreciate them a lot.
Great find Vikki

Oh I want to be certified 365 too... This is a wonderful shot... And isn't it so special that we now notice the "little things" in life.. ??
