'The world is charged with the grandeur of God" - G M Hopkins
All looks wonderful.
Thanks for noting the Hopkins thing. And thanks for following, Mr. Brown. Hope you get to someday see the Grand Canyon, if you haven't already. Pictures don't do it justice. You can stand at the same place a long period the same day, and it changes in front of you because of the lighting. And that doesn't even touch the many ecosystems due to the rapidly changing microclimates as you descend. And all the wildlife. It is splendid.
