Absolutely stunning!
I love the contrast of the pink leaves against the blue sky. The bird adds to the life of the image.

Just love the pictures Copper!

Thanks for the link, dW. I like it. It led me to Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline", which I love.

I am glad you like the pictures, Jill.

I've downloaded those things ... there's a really good YouTube downloader at

It's free and it works well. You can also use it to take take the sound out of a vid as an .mp3.

I use this Firebox plugin. Works great, also lets you capture the audio of a video as an mp3.

I also loved the photos, and the quoted passage was very thought-provoking.

Thank you, Deb, for the positive comment and for the link. The quote from Hungarian poet Sándor Petõfi has been popular for about a century now in some countries, especially in so-called former communist countries. It has inspired generations of people in anti-invasion wars, civil-wars, and the cold war. Even now where freedom of speech and association is lacking.
