WOW, Val!!! This is positively exquisite! It could be in National Geographic, it is so perfect. Incredible selective focus and I love all the marvelous shades and tones of green. Even thought the detail and clarity is exceptional, there is still a gentle softness to the whole image - I just can't stop staring at it. Amazing, woman, you just dazzle me! #10012272
