I'm sure you all know that the number of images you see here on this site is only about 2% of the photos I take. Many don't make it past the initial review stage but a few each day go through my "digital darkroom" and are prepped to be published on this site. Some of these prepped photos are rejected at the last second. I decided that the next few days will be a second chance. This image was originally taken June 3, 2006 but seems more appropriate for this time of year.
