Thank you for your kind words about my blog. I'm glad you have been blessed. I feel humbled to be included among the great blogs and photography on your blog roll. I've never been to your blog before, but am glad to know about it. I agree that living green is one of the most amazing colors, and no photo on a screen can ever do it justice.
