Too many photos, not enough time or space!

The Courier-Herald had some wonderful entries for this month’s Community Click.

FIrst, Anne Personius of Buckley shared a picture from husband Sgt. Tim Personious’s last day with the Buckley Police Department. Personius, at right, retired Jan. 8 after 29 years with the force. Police Chief Jim Arsanto stands next to him, at left. Photo credit belongs to Buckley Police.

Bonney Lake resident Doug Willrich snapped the second photo, of crossing plane trails over Lake Debra Jane.

Members of the Rainier Hills Photo Club (click through the link to check out their new website) submitted the remainder of this month’s fabulous Click photos. Their assignment was “A New or Different Perspective.”

Cary Knaack zoomed up close and personal with the facial features of an aging man.

Mushroom caps, probably no taller than a few inches, went through the looking glass after Barbara Retelle brought herself down to their size.

Don West captured the Seattle skyline from the confines of a gondola on the new Seattle Great Wheel, on Pier 57.

Julie Ross summed up the sensation of the weak-sighted regaining their visual senses. Appropriately, the text coming through the reading glasses comes from a biblical passage about giving sight to the blind.

Tree branches normally stay securely above our heads, but when Kate Larson points her camera to the sky, they transform into tentacles, reaching down to envelope us all.

The plant captured by Lyn McNees prospers even as it appears trapped in a glass enclosure.

Patty Capps brought both the Space Needle and the home of the Experience Music Project and Science Fiction Museum under an ominous sky.

Robert Ogolsky trapped the Seattle Skyline in the bubble of a large mirror-surfaced sculpture.

The colors captured by Roger Young outside the Museum of Flight seem almost not of this world.

Shannon Meng, too, used the Museum of Flight as her subject. Through the eye of a fishbowl lens shooting from a dark corner, the museum’s exhibition hall seems to be on the verge of winking out of existence altogether.
