According to gem lore, pearls " create beauty and harmony from discord, aids in emotional balancing, stimulates creativity ". This is especially true considering this image is my Birthday Present to Jacqueline, J_272004, because today is her Big Day !! Jackie first introduced herself to me by showing me how to correct the flaws in my very bad first post, instead of critisizing she had a solution, & we've since become fast friends. Through many early morning & late night chats ( the time difference, you know ), emails, PMs left here, Yahoo Messenger notes left there, messages left on our DA accounts, & jokes we've shared, laughter & tears, given each other advice & just talked about our everyday lives. Through this all we've cemented a very real friendship that I'm happy to be a part of. So Jacqueline...HAPPY BIRTHDAY HON !!!!!! Have a great day hon !!

Never question if you are in love or not, because if you were you wouldn't need to ask.

Very pretty...the light on it really does make it seem to be a strand of pearls. Very cool. And what a great present, a jewelry box full of gorgeous gems. Nicely done.

Look to the Future, Remeber the Past, but Live in the Present, and Never forget to tell those you love "I Love You", you may not get another chance.

This is not my favorite coming from you. I guess I don't care for the "spin" effect all that much. I guess this is more or less a matter of my taste and not a reflection of your true talent. :) It was kind of you to make such a dedication to a true friend.

No poem today. I don't know why, because this might be my favorite of your fractals. I love the absolutely vintage feeling this has. I see old pearls on an antique vanity. This is so amazing, Lauren! LOVE IT!!

Hi and Happy Birthday Jackie, hope it was a fun and special day for you, the best you have ever had! You know Lauren, you really do your homework before you post! You seem to be well informed on all your images and share with us very interesting facts! They add real substance to the image! This is no exception to anything I have said in the past, you should be called 'Queen of the Fractals'! This is quality stuff Lauren, very tasteful indeed! Sincerely, Marilyn

Out of all your images in your gallery, this takes me back to my childhood.
It reminds me of wallpaper we used to have in our house when i was growing up... very 70's.

I just found this in the voting booth and had to duck over to say it’s beautiful. There’s a subtle contrast in it that I find fascinating. It also has an appealing eastern look with colours and patterns that wouldn’t look out of place in a Mosque. Very well done.
