- i went to the people page.
- i entered the nickname "my.iowa".
- i clicked on the "polaroids" tab.
- i clicked on the "show allof this user's pix I haven't seen yet" link.
- this is the first one (of 9) that appeared.
- i love it.

p.s. - i'm sure i've seen it before, but i must've seen it while doing some stealth surfing.

p.s.s - why i love it...

- your composition is perfect. i often grow tired of seeing the horizon in the center of the photo. thank you.

- your timing is perfect. the formation of aeroplanes is so nicely placed above the man making his own photo (is this a correct assumption?)

- your point of view is perfect. it's not often an artist can successfully capture (in one photo) three horizon lines.

- the simplicity is sublime.

(oh, the exposure - that's such a mundane & boring aspect of photography i can't really get excited about it) - i expect that from someone with your talent that i hardly notice.

pssssss.... i'm going to save the other 8 "i haven't seen yet" photos for later. kind of like saving the last few pieces of chocolate in order to savour them.

a strange comment? far from it--one to treasure! but there is still one you left on another photo, that i must respond to...maybe you don't remember it, but it is a comment i treasure, and i will answer it first, and savor this one a bit longer! thank you so much, oré-- i never feel like i can measure up to the most wonderful comments you leave....

what a composition!

was just at this place again last night for a birthday party, and it was so beautiful. no planes in formation, but lots of gulls and birds and so much fun--running through the surf!
