Interestingly, i thought i did not care so much for this picture,
but i still ranked it 2nd.

OTOH, i liked cn_games a lot, and i ranked it 10th.  And sundogsx did
not come in last on my vote.  :)

I am fortunate to have a 2 monitor system; so Innocent Shadow has been up
on my second screen for a couple of weeks, kinda like a wall hanging.  It
really is a work of art.

Of course, _Bear in the Big Blue House_ will never be the same again. ;)

Wow, i can't wait to see that one.

Yeah, those leaves bothered me at first too.  But the more i stared at (ogled?)
the pic, the easily correctable poor masonry bothered me more.

Er, just re-reading before i pressed -send- and thought i should clarify "poor".
The guy, the guy who built the wall was really drunk that day because the bricks
have too much vertical coincidence.  Among others, the area just above the fire 
hydrant has 3 courses with coincident bricks.  If it was an American Union job,
then sure, ("Hey! blame the g.d. architect. I just puts the bricks where he tells
me!"), but a japanese mason; never!
