A Tender Touch


The tiny detail of a lady sitting on a rock bench overlooking Mirror Pond in Drake Park in Bend, Oregon may seem to be a minor aspect of this photo for Watery Wednesday which, without pretense, resonates gently the quiet beauty of my city. In the background Mt Bachelor casts its majestic presence and bears witness to the beginning of a perfect Spring morning. Little does our unsuspecting subject realize that her solitary moment is actually part of a bigger picture, so to speak, that will be sent around the world for so many to see. Let us wish her the best from afar for this brief glimpse and thank her for sharing her peaceful pose for others to appreciate.

That's a sight for sore eyes! Beautiful! I used to know a Mr. Spangler in Minneapolis back in the late 50s...any relation?
