Image of the week. Nov.9th - 18th.

[whippet]

Thank you to all who posted images this week. This job does not get any easier when trying to make a selection.

In posting order, these are what I have selected.

Fauxtoto - Take a walk on the sea side. What stopped making this IOW, was that my three dogs were missing. The mist makes the feeling of solitude more acute.

Jackscrap - Street photography. I had to laugh when I read the 'No photo allowed' caption.  The looks on their faces speaks a volume.

drjoerogers - Beach cloners. Brilliant title. The birds are very intent on something. They really mean business.

I.O.W just has to go to Pontiac 1940 with his beautiful image - Chickadee. Oldman River Valley. As soon as I saw it, it took my breath away.

Oh gosh, thanks whippet~! They are cute birds and highly photogenic. 

Congrats to Fauxtoto, jackscrap and drjoerogers.  Love Fauxtoto's walk on the beach..calming. Hilarious "no photo" shot jackscrap. In addition to a fun title, drjoerogers' beach cloners is a cool shot. 

Best to all,
