Description
We waited for the year 2000 to come by and it did! And now we are watching the year 2005 slip away from us. Looking forward for a better year for everyone. Aloha and thank you for viewing.
ps....Looks like a Preying Mantis? What do you think?

The end followed by a new beginning.
superbly done...like very much the duo tones !
I kind of see a preying mantis here.But See a real nice lone tree with a good use of foreground for the composition.Nice misty shot.
It kind-a reminds me of one of those scarey movies when your walking along and this tree comes to life, and scares the #%^&&^+@ out of you... LOL!!!! It is a very cool shot Errol, very moody!!!!!*****
maybe all this grey for the 2006 year......But a good pic!
The pose is similar to mantis. Good composed moody pic.
Wonderful compo and shot of a stark dead tree in the mist makes for a nice moody capture. Mantis maybe.
I love the moods you have presented us in the last few image, the creativity that makes it FUN for all, keep up the good work!!!:):):):)..V
First impression was a swimmer reaching his goal, then the running man that was reaching his goal going through the swamps but it is a running tree (Treebeard?) that will definitely reach the finish! :) Gorgeous work, Errol, yes, the years follow one after another in a fast pace!
