Let's remember that this thread was about a beautiful moonrise.

Pretty picture, Al. I didn't mean to offend you or anyone else (Randy). I just wanted to share a little information with folks that seemed to be unaware of it.

So, I know you'll take this criticism as it was intended. Your photo of the moon on the water is nice, but it would have benefited by showing a little bit more of Texas in the foreground, like an overhanging tree branch, and something up close on the ground. Framing a composition happens inside the camera. If you want to improve your images, check out a graphic concept called the rule of thirds, too. It's pretty neat.

Regardless, thanks for sharing your travels and pictures with us. Looking forward to seeing more. You're on a retirement adventure I have never had and never will. I envy you.

I do miss the heart. It seems almost every forum I watch changed to this new format that no one likes very much.

♥️ I know. Replying with a heart just isn’t the same.

I actually prefer a 👍 over the heart.
Just wish we had the "like" back. Some posts are more appropriately liked, rather than loved. 🙂

The like is not coming back. It conflicts with the programming of the whole site.

This thread is closed. I'm sick of vague political references.

For those of you who didn't go there, thank you. It is indeed a nice photograph.

For the rest, if you don't have anything nice to say, DON'T SAY IT!
