Description
"When you reach for the stars you may not quite get one, but you won't come up with a handful of mud either."
~Leo Burnett
Leo Burnett (October 21, 1891 - June 7, 1971) was an advertising executive famous for creating such icons as the Jolly Green Giant, the Marlboro Man, the Pillsbury Doughboy and Tony the Tiger.

We're in the deep freeze here in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario. Every morning we awake to a another frozen water pipe... the furnace is working overtime... and the electricity is on and off more than Tammy Faye Bakker's mascara... ;)
If I owe anybody an IM or an email... please know that I'll get back to you as soon as things become a little less hectic.
Thank you all for your encouraging feedback on my previous stuff (and critical comments are very much appreciated, Arend... ;)... thank you!) And thanks a bunch or taking the time to have a look at this one!
Hugs!
Helen :)

What more can you say to perfection!! Blue sky filled with reaching gossamer fingers of lighter blue. The distant but nearer long range beacon light across a world of consuming depth. Oh, so very lovely! Awesome,indeed.

This is just lovely, Helen, and I can't think of a single thing you could do to improve it. The white tips to the fronds are sublime. Well done!

Lovely work, Helen. Beautiful colouring, the positioning of the leaflike structures and the tips of white frostbite (?). Hope you keep warm enough!
