"this hilariously awesome shot is my nomination for the pinnacle blog, what a fun moment captured. the dogs really do look like they are rolling around laughing. doesn't take much more explanation. and gwyny's dogs, to me, are the mascot of the group, so they should definitely be in the blog."

Those who have seen Marc's photos over the years know his dedication to landscape photography, I can't count the number of times he's gotten out of bed early to bring to flickr the beauty of the region surrounding Wallonie (and elsewhere, this photo was taken in Limburg before 9am).

My choice may not be the most dramatic photo on mmarsupilami's stream -- despite the lush color depth --, but this is one of the reasons I particularly like it... its warmth is very patient.

Thank you, Marc, for sharing these beautiful mornings with us! There are very few people who can do such great work with a Powershot and Picasa, I know you've moved on from that now, but hats off... :)

"This is one I favorited a long time ago, because I like the geometry and the distortion combined with the semi-shallow depth-of-field. Great colors and contrast too."
