POTW for 16/03/2011...

With POTW for 8/3/11 still clearly in my mind of Rodney’s captures of an elderly gentlemen down on his luck…takes me to the other end of the spectrum with ozimax image of the inside pool at William Randolph Hearst castle in California. One can only be impressed with the craftsmanship, and colours selected by the owner, providing stunning reflections and well captured and processed by ozimax…congratulations :)

Many thx Fozzie, an unexpected compliment indeed.

Hearst Castle is indeed a splendour, as is the central Californian coast as a whole. A very special place. For all our jokes about California being the land of fruit and nuts, it is quite a spectacular place.
