8. Awww Thank You DD! I never did either until this morning when I looked at it. Thing of it is I can't help it.

About once a year I slip into what my wife calls my "manic mode", during which, is seems, most anywhere I look I see a potential photograph. This mode also produces a racing mind, through which thoughts enter and exit the other side barely hesitating long enough to register. For that reason Laurie suggested I keep a pen and note pad handy. That helps, except when scribbling down fleeting thoughts my fingers often write too fast for understanding!

The proverbial good thing about this state of mind is enhanced focus. An idea ignites insight and my brain instantly forgets what was there but a fraction of a moment ago. Sigh.

At any rate I have been taking pictures one after the other these days.
