WOW.... that's beautiful, thankyou for putting the other shot in the sbs too, it's very interesting
Wonderful, especially with the explanation and the SBS
Wonderful! Well done, author
One night per year? A truly one-night-stand
Beautiful photo ... the story reminded me of the movie Dennis the Menace, with Mr. Wilson and his flower ...
Howdie stranger!
