Color it blue and take away the trees and you would be forgiven for thinking these were waves of the sea.

Nice one Hank. Hope I’m still taking photos when I’m 71. Mind you, I am 65, so not that far to go. Keep up the good work and enjoy.

South of Spokane in Washington State? Never heard of the place but I love it! Color it green and you’d be looking at the “altiplano” in central Colombia.

If your doing this good at age 71, just think how good you’ll be in few years

This photograph is beautiful- almost in a surreal way. The different patches of land seem to form a quilt.

Fantastic photo. This is a perfect example of ‘rolling hills’, as the highlights and shadows seem to make them move like the sea. You need to set up a website where we can see more of your work!
