Winter's Treat

Although I'm not a big fan of most flower and other "nature" pictures, I still like composition and vibrant color. So I find such pictures useful to illustrate compositional issues such as "balance" and depth of field, not to mention the rule of three's which boiled down can be explained much like KISS (Keep it simple, Stupid). In that spirit, here are two pics I took last weekend while drinking a wonderful Fat Tire on the veranda of the rotating bar by the big waterfall in the Cascades at Opryland.
