I will never get tired of your bayou shots, Bill--and you know I'm in line for the first of your Louisiana Bayous calendars! (Did you know that you're going to make a Louisiana Bayous calendar? ;) lol I especially like the composition of this one; there is something so pleasing about the arrangement of the large trees on the left and the smaller trees in the background, with the water flowing toward the back. Keep these landscapes coming! #6227601Kathleen K. Parker July 24, 2008
I do not tire at all of your bayou shots, Bill. Keep them coming. Lovely composition! I agree with Colleen about the calendar!Bill Knaps July 24, 2008
Colleen knows, but I don't think you know I had a picture for October on a Lafayette, LA Calendar. Than you for your nice comments and support Colleen and KK. Bill #6227638Robyn A. Terrell July 24, 2008
Just Gorgeous....keep them coming, Bill! #6227745Michelle Alton July 25, 2008

Personally I never get tired of these wonderful images. However, after seeing your truck near the water and realizing that you are actually in a boat floating around with critters below...I wonder...have you lost your mind? My imagination conjures up all sorts of things like snakes hanging from trees, creepy crawly bugs and etc. LOLReynaldo D. Reyes July 25, 2008
Each shot of the Bayou's has something special whether it's the lighting colors or composition. In this one the foreground colors and hues are wonderfully delightful. So beautiful Bill! #6229713Karen Bacon July 25, 2008
