Description

When words fail me (writer's block...LOL) I let the pictures speak for themselves. This is where I spent my Christmas. This is my girlfriend's view in the morning. When the sun begins to rise the reeds are golden. Such a beautiful sight! Unfortunately, I didn't realize my camera's flash was on. Sooooo....I used two layers here. The first layer I did in fresco (I really liked the effect, the second I put the original on top and used the opacity and dropped it to 25%..this is almost excactly as it should be! As the sun goes down, the shades of gray and silver on the reeds are just outstanding. The only way I was able to express it was to say it looked like a Porcupine was in the middle of the pond. That picture did't come out...:( Have a wonderful week. Michelle

Mom and I had a CC7 and watched the ball drop from Home on New Years Eve. Glad to hear you also seemed to have had a great holiday. Wonderful Image here Michelle. I've tried playing with filters some but not much luck in producing anything I'd call post worthy. Gotta run soon.. almost time to go pick up the pooch...lol. Hugs and Kisses from Dave :^)
