Very nice. We also have a crocodile rock! I had to laugh seeing this one as it is much brighter than the one here in Oregon. It is along the river and has been painted many times over the years. TFS Love your shots.

Crocodile Rock? To me it looks more like a snapping turtle head. Great captures though.

"I remember when rock was young" ...oh good grief. Well, reminders of old age aside, I'd like to think Elton was inspired by your Crockodile Rock. La, la la la la. (Of course, I had to listen...great tune!) I like your gently turning to gold clouds across the gray water. Very nice.

I always have looked forward to your postcards Bill, and they are aptly named. Well done.
