I agree with you, Lawrence, that the first photo in this collection is the most "artful" you have sent. I've never thought of myself as a purist, but I wish the dog had not butted in. Be that as it may, it's not only a beautiful scene, it calls me to look deeper, and that, I think, is what art is -- the evocation of moods, thoughts, dreams that float inchoate in us.
