Description Submitted as my color print last night at the Marin Photo Club meeting.

The feedback was "too much foreground" Ah well..too bad there wasn't a cool dead log to fill up the foreground...should've gone with my mirror ideas I guess...

This one was a "I have to get out of my father-in-laws house before I kill him" journeys A long story with an even longer history behind it...

Let's just say photography can be very cathartic for me
