This is one of my favorites...


It was taken in the graveyard on Le Mont St Michel.  That is Chartres Cathedral in the back ground.

He's had a camera since he was seven.  He makes slideshows and music to go with them.  He is also truly gifted with the computer and was the one to research, buy and set up the entire system at his parents' veterinary clinic.  If things go wrong, they have to get him out of school.  Even in Grade 1 the teachers would get him to come trouble shoot things for them and when the Apple store here couldn't help us with transferring files from our old pc, Al did it all the way from Florida. 
He also makes some good videos and documentaries for school projects.  Thanks for allowing me to brag.

These pictures are so beautiful.  Kitkatz, that garden just makes me feel rested.  How lovely!
AlohaBeth, was that Mont St. Michel in France?  I visited there for a weekend when I was living in France. Awesome!
