Another wonderful portrait of sister Tamara my sweet angel. She does look very caught up in her thoughts and I wonder if her imagination runs riot like mine often does. Excellent tones and a beautiful softness to the details, love it. I wonder where her thoughts take her these days sweetie. Maybe the baby keeps her thoughts centralised there. A great big HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG, a kiss of course with much love and very best of wishes. In my heart always Srna.....Ray XXX

I love this wild sort of look in this partial portrait Mine and the tones are excellent.
I will look in occasionally to see what else you have been doing. Thank you again for your visits to me. Very best wishes to you and a hug........Ray

Hello Mine. Thank you so much for your comment and for the other two as well.
I am currently taking a 'holiday' from UF and dealing with other things in my life just now. I have, during the past few days, called on a lot of UF friends just to say hello and keep in touch. I shall add you to my list. A hug and best wishes to you.....Ray

Very dramatic and a great eerie and moody atmosphere that really fits this architectural masterpiece from all those years ago. Well done to you again Jacques.
I will be back again in due course to see what all of you have been up to. Best wishes my friend.....Ray

Hi there Jacques...although I am still on 'holiday' from UF I did say I would look in and see how my friends are.
This has been a most informative series of pictures my dear friend of this very famous area in Mexico. Great details and textures in this shot and lovely natural tones. My very best wishes to you as always......Ray

A great capture Dan as bees are so tricky as they move around after alighting for only a short spell. Beautiful golden yellow tones in the bloom and good details.
I will see you again in the not too distant future when I can grab a little time to myself. Best wishes my friend.....Ray

I love this (and the previous one with the musician) the mono tones and the slight traces of lighting work very well for me Victoria. 'Sleeping' is particularly effective, well done to you.
I will look in again at some point but I am months away from posting again. Another great big HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUG and my best wishes always.............Ray

Hi there Roger. I pop in and out of FB and like yourself it has me stumped. I think it is mainly for the young my friend. There is farming, gardening, the Mafia, running a cafe and goodness knows what else. So far I am not involved in any of those activities. I have 55 friends and nearly all of them are from UF so it is good to keep up with some of those. I think I signed in as Ray Whyte I cannot remember anything else my friend. I will try to look out for you. I have also tried to link up with some others from UF but we are having little success. You would possibly have success in finding someone with an unusual name that you know from UF. Doyle Chastain and Srna Stankovic would be two possibles if you know them at all.
Hope to see you there Roger. Very best wishes to you........Ray

This is a wonderful landscape study Janina and I love the way you have caught the sun dancing on the surface of the water. I love too the mist rising from the surface. Beautiful tones. Well done. Very best wishes to you.....Ray
I am currently on 'holiday' from UF but I have spent the last few days catching up with friends. I will be posting again some time next year.

I will look in again to see what else you post. I will not be posting again for many months. Hope you are well, take care. Best wishes.....Ray

Although I am on a long 'holiday' away from UF I said I would keep in touch, so here I am.
This is a wonderful simplistic composition my dear Supriyo in excellent mono tones. I remember when I was about 10 (60 years ago) going off down a river with a few friends in a large inflatable, what fun it was. Well done for this shot it looks great. Best wishes to you as always.......Ray

This is so beautiful Shyamal and another wonderful traditional ceremony from your country. Lovely tones and a great balance complete another perfect piece of photography from you.
I am off UF at present and having a long 'holiday' away from it all. I said I would keep in touch and I have. I will be back again. Take care of you. Best wishes.....Ray
