There's a video in the attached link about the piece. It took a village and then some. There was an extended story about a month or so ago about it but don't recall where?

The Middle Fork generally refers to the Middle Fork Snoqualmie River.

Tonight's Thali dinner

The sun, the sun, is out today! This lowly herb is considered a weed but it loves to bask in the sunlight, of which there has been little this spring. I used the post photo editing tools for this. They have been updated recently so you can go into light and color for more detailed tools.

Maybe this will post both. The rose bush is coming to life. This is before and after the editing tools. If you click on the carrot next to color or light you get options that weren't there before.

Dew on the grass showing the new post-photo-shoot (or what ever you call them) editing tools. Note that to see all the tools once they are opened, you may need to scroll them up or down for all the options.

Here is the screenshot of the tools for editing color. And the original picture at the bottom. See prior post for the light settings. I will try to upload them both in this post. I think I actually did the light after the color but when I tried to post them all together only one posted. These last two were re-posted in tapatalk.

Here are a few pictures from the sunset, and just after it, the other evening. A sunset is a somewhat rare event of late in the PNW. Hoping for more to come.

😁 The first one of the sunset pictures posted up side down. I am leaving it for the cool reflection that mirrored the sky.

Some big old trees:











Can it get much gray and not rain?

[ivabiggun71]

Haven't been here for a while. The Priv can take decent photos at night.

Actually that was the crap one, here is the better one.

Happened to be a regatta down at Greenlake today. Edited to add: "The Boys in the Boat" started here.

And maybe Spring will really come on Monday....

The Willamette Queen at its dock at Salem Riverfront Park at sunset yesterday (Salem Oregon). You can take tours on this up and down the river--on my bucket list.

Some big old trees:

Great pictures of beautiful trees. If they could speak what would they have to say?

[Sigewif]

Yes, spring is, indeed, coming to the PNW

I can't find info but suspect that since it was a Military base, Fort Lawton, Discovery Park may have been logged and only a few older trees are still there. I think I read that there's a tunnel tree but have not found it.

But here's an article about classic old/large trees in Seattle Parks.

The equipment

[Sigewif]

First day of spring: skiing. What else?

Could you turn it around? I want to see if it is really ambidextrous.

I really don't think it's truly ambidextrous. If it were, I'd presume it would have handles on both sides. Like a sippy cup...
