Winter Behind Our House

Walter A. Aue, January 2001

Note: Right behind our house, there is an old railroad track. It has now been converted from "rails to trails". We like to walk it, look at the ocean, and take some photographs of trees and rocks. So, sorry, it's the same ocean and the same trees, and the same rocks over and over again...
(Please don't click on the pictures, despite the ready hand. The links are empty: I merely used them to put nice frames around the photographs. One of these days I'll figure out how to put the same frames there without the links...)

Ah, I figured it out. But it's 2005 now, not 2001, and to redo all the images would be a hell of a work. Please excuse me for chickening out. And further, as in all of these early pictures, please reduce the brightness of your monitor until the pictures appear as natural as I had wanted them to be seen in 2001.
