    This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

    I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

    The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

    Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

    Subject: Lake Tahoe Meadow

    On vacation I found a beautiful place to walk in a meadow along the shores of Lake Tahoe. It was a wonderful hike. Along this shore, I was able to find some sailboats too.

    We were visiting family during the weekend, so no big hikes but just a stroll along the Nieuwe Waterweg and the Calandkanaal in Rozenburg at the
    Europoort and Port of Rotterdam

    Photobygms,

    I like that you got some good scenic photos along the coast. I also liked seeing the birds. What was that duck swimming away from you? That's interesting to see wind mills at that location. We have windmills far from people, usually at or near open spaces or farms.
