I crossed paths with this goat somewhere in the Bahamas. Is she was looking how safe it is  before crossing? To the right is a lone fisherman on a Dutch (Scheveningen) beach fishing for flounder. This beach is close to my hearth. I played "hooky" and beach cumbered on it. I lived vey close to it.

Not so old is this image of  a very old pine tree. I noticed this tree on Beach Drive NE in St. Petersburg FL. The image was shot in color on Kodak Royal Gold 200 using a Canon Elan 7E with a 28-135 AF/IS zoom lens. Photoshop was used to remove the color and to crop the image slightly to remove foreground clutter.

There is something about B&W photography. Often two images of the same subject matter, one in color and one in black & white. The latter one can be more eye-catching then the color one. Why that is I do not know. This picture taken in the Halifax Preserve is such an instance as well as the image of a canal in St. Petersburg FL
