It is amazing the things you discover when cleaning up your archives. This is from a foggy fall morning 2 years ago at a little park near my home. I don't know why I didn't post it before I suppose I just never got to it. Well better late than never!
For a much larger more detailed view go here.
Coming back to AM3 after a long hiatus. I hope to be more active in the coming months.
