Congratulations again Alan,

Today I've do a tour to your Color Gallery 

<http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/Color/>

and I?ve really enjoy it. You have transmitted the same idea I have for the
Color photography, IMO a color shot should not be a picture "with colors". 
The colors should be the picture and be an essential element of the 
composition.

Thanks.  I was taking color photos like many of these (shots taken for the 
"feel" of the scene)
for years before I found out I might be practicing what others call 
"miksang" photography. 
Your photo:

seems to fall into this mood.

Here is a link that explains the philosophy:
