"Get your damn foot off my tail" growled the Porcupine.
VZ: The dog finally retrieved, but it was too little too late.

Whoosh.
VZ: Hope you have your needleproof vest on, Ian.
You truly capture this viewer with a picture like this. My love of pine trees would be too much to explain here, But like all fond memories, one glance at this picture and I can actually smell the row of pine trees that grew behind my house when I was younger. You have made me smile this morning Viktor, Thank You.
VZ: The distant memories of our childhood are always felt so special, when they visit us. I'm glad my picture threw you back in time, Tony, when life was so much simpler.
An unusual perspective and a beautiful detail of pine tree needles, an "explosion" indeed with the quality character of a graphic/etching- I very like the touching comment of Tony and I can "smell" the spicy-fresh fragrance of pine trees, too, I especially love and sometimes collect the (almost eternal) pine cones, of opened of closed! (May be that I'm to naive to understand the allusion in your second sentence.)
VZ: Pine cones are marvels of nature engineering, Philine. I photographed them so many times, but none of the pictures satisfy my demanding taste.
My second line is based on a play with the word "pine". Just recently I learned a second meaning of this word: pine (pšn) v. pined, pin·ing, pines. --intr. 1. To feel a lingering, often nostalgic desire. See Synonyms at yearn. 2. To wither or waste away from longing or grief: pined away and died. --tr. Archaic. 1. To grieve or mourn for. --pine n. Archaic. Intense longing or grief.
Love this....awesome use of DOF..
VZ: You're always welcome, dear.
What a point of view ! Splendid mono tone !
VZ: My pleasure, Flo.
Motion!
VZ: Come fly with me, Su. Just don't forget to brace yourself!
everGreen in black and white
dead or alive ?
VZ: I turned an evergreen into an everlasting b&w, didn't I, Chris? Now it doesn't matter dead or alive, it's timeless.
It almost looks like a fabric, I tend to look more at the pattern of light than directly at the pine needles.
VZ: Yep. I'm glad you noticed that. The light and shadows is exactly what creates this explosive feel. Good thinking, Kelly.
That's a mighty pine capture!
VZ: Glad you recognized it as such, Nadine. One day it will be in the textbooks of how to use the light and shadows.
`Explosion` describes this perfectly. There is such a sense of movement in this. Very clever. (:o)
VZ: It's all interplay of lights and shadows, Roz.
I had to look for the double meaning, well found Viktor, love the lightfall, love the B&W.
VZ: There are many discoveries ahead of us in oour journey through the English language, Astrid. Having a good teacher always helps.
her explosion pierces the soul! mal
VZ: I'm pretty good with tweezers, Mal.
A fine explosion of a picture, combined with a witty verse...
VZ: That's how it supposed to work, Larry, as a whole. If I was skillful enough, I'd write a piece of music and inject it here as well.
VZ, a mundane object captured very well and the PP is wonderful. nice
VZ: Yep. You just desribed the whole concept of "Nostalgia" blog, Ade.
