WC412: We Love the Woods
by Wayne Jones
Editor's Weekly Pick Award: Weekly Challenge #412 (12/20/09 - 01/02/10)
Stan’s idea for the final weekly challenge of 2009 really made me think. I was considering posting one of this year’s nature images that are now on my wall. But the type of picture posted here is really what 2009 was about for me, even if I did not post them here. (Well there is one in my gallery in EPJ) Looking back on this year’s images, it’s apparent that I shot about 20 pictures of my grandchildren for every “nature-only” shot. My priorities have changed over the past year, and I am happy with that, even if it means I didn’t post as much on NPN as I thought I would. Since much of my time with the kids is introducing them to the wonders of Nature, I’ll guess I’ll just have to see if some of my kidpix fit into the Man and Nature gallery in 2010.
Happy Holidays and Wishes for a Wonderful New Year to all my friends at NPN!

It reminds of the excitement I felt as a child exploring the woods. The smell of the woods, the sights & sounds..And the dream seemed to be always running slightly ahead of me..
Except for those times when I would catch up, and live for a moment in harmony with it.
That was the wonder
Merry Christmas

Sounds like you have your ducks in a row with the grand kids. More power to you on this venture of helping them appreciate nature. I'm sure you'll get some nature only shots off as well.
