More of Moore State Park…

I'm posting a few "leftovers" from the trip I took last week to Moore State Park in Paxton, Massachusetts, with the Massasoit Art Guild.

  I posted one photo I took there on my Flickr page and, lo and behold, it made Explore.  If you are not familiar with Flickr, making Explore means that your photo is one of the 500 most interesting photos posted that particular day.  There is some kind of algorithm that determines this and it is all kind of cloaked in mystery.  But the results are interesting.  And I love looking through the Explored photos when I have time.  They are often very interesting.

This photo of mine immediately got over 1,500 views and was "favorited" by 65 people.  It also prompted four or five new contacts for me.  Okay, I have to admit, it's kind of a thrill to have this happen.  Here's the photo in question followed by a few others less "famous" ones.

I can certainly see why people liked your photo so much. It is a work of art. They are all very pretty but the first one has a special artistic quality to it. I love it! Well done.
