    We find our wings and learn to fly"
    .Can I leave you with Mr Sinatra's last verse in his fantastic song..
    Come Fly with Me.
    Weather wise its such a lovely day

    Down to acapulco bay
    Its perfect, for a flying honeymoon - they say
    Come fly with me, well fly well fly away

  68. Once again, there were a multitude of good photography and composition for a happy theme. Everyone is to be commended. The top ten? I'm glad I'm not a judge...Hard to choose.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I knonw it is tough on the admins, but perhaps a "poll" to see if we would want to keep the Poll everyweek. If after next week you decide to keep the poll, I would love to see the weekly poll winner suggest the theme for the following week as a prize!

    Much appreciation to the admins for all their hard work.

    ReplyDelete
