12-7-13 V is for Vineyard. This one was outside of Salem, Oregon in the Willamette Valley.

Thanks for making my Oregon Coast Clouds number one for the day. I appreciate ll the wonderful comments and support.

I had an image that puzzled many a few days ago. It was taken at another Chicago landmark - Crown Fountain, an interactive piece of art. There are two parts to the fountain and I posted the one with the face several days ago. While I was there there were two workers inside the other fountain wearing hard hats fixing. Or adjusting the lights. I too found that shot to be very interesting. http://www.ilenesamowitz.com/Photo-A-Day/PAD2013/27351726_M4TCvC#!i=2929522185&k=SdjRnTF

Lastly, Terry asked a couple of days ago about Lensbaby. Lensbaby has series of products that work with interchangeable lens systems use different optics to produce images with different kinds of selective focus or fisheye effects. I have been a fan for several years and it is fun to shoot with them. I think my favorite optic is the plastic optic.
