Ric,
Thanks for showing your PAWs.  Week 27 and 28b are good descriptive
portraits.  I believe that 27 would be stronger if the upper right
side was brought down some.

Week 28a leaves something out for me.  I think what is bothering me is
I want a long row of live oaks like you see at that plantation north
of N.O. or the ones on Cumberland Island.  I do appreciate the
distance you chose to show a person alone in nature.  Possibly it
would work better if the taking position was a little to the right to
make the path move a little more diagonally in the image.  What is
strange is that if done as a watercolor I would like it very much with
the dark greens and browns of the trees.  So after all the rambling,
it is a good image, this viewer is just bringing personal baggage to
the viewing.

Again, thanks for pushing the shutter and then showing the results.
