For this image I was going for the one moment. It is winter, and at least a week or more since the last snowfall. The wind and sun have released the tree from its overcoat of snow, but it is soon to be covered by the next storm the red clouds of dawn are announcing. Vue 6, Carrara, and Paint Shop Pro. I was listening to classical music on the radio, drinking coffee and eating cookies. The cat was on the windowsill above me chasing a moth, and the moon was smilling at me through the window. All these elements were part of the creation, and are forever imbedded in the image for me. Enjoy.
