Very nice, I swear NannaBijou himself would be proud.

It's funny how the mind can fixate on a place, an object, a view or even a moment that has passed you long ago. I look forward to going back to Silver Islet someday, just to get a second look at that old cemetery or to Pass Lake, where I can watch the train roll down the track high above the tree tops.

Your Hometown is beautiful.

Great God Almighty, I do believe this is the most beautiful photograph in your entire gallery... and that's definitely saying a lot.

It's awe-inspiring in its magnitude... there's nothing I don't like about this shot. It carries that same dream-like quality that all of your gallery has... but something about this makes it hit home even more than any other.

Man... as soon as I have money, this is the first print I'm going to buy. Heh. I could fawn over this for ages.

I just love the great colours which HDRI can produce. It's an amazing shot. Hey, by the by, just -how- cold is Thunder Bay? (hopefully not as bad as Regina.)
