  1. Thank you to all the contributors who submit their pics to the Scene in Edmonds column.
    Todays entries included some scenes showing people and wildlife which I personally enjoy.
    I also do enjoy and appreciate all the flower and sunrise/sunset pics as well but after hundreds of them, as beautiful as they are, just don’t seem to have the same impact as those showing people and wildlife.
    When I visited Europe in the eighties I read Rick Steve’s’ guides and one of his photography tips was to not focus too much on inanimate objects like buildings and monuments.
    Something to the effect that people enjoy seeing living things versus non living objects.
    Flowers are living things too but I think you see my point.
    I took many pictures of people as a result and when I returned my friends enjoyed seeing those pics much more than all the things you would typically find at the tourist attractions.
    We all have a personal connection to other people, botany and wildlife and I just want to express my gratitude and thanks to all who contribute regardless. Thank you and keep ‘em coming!
