I was playing around again, and ended up with this low color effect. Bonneyville Mills is still in use today, and there is a very nice nature area with walking trails, and this is also where the Dahlia Trial gardens are.

I received a message from our friend Kathy (trixxie17) and wanted to share it with you.

Just wanted to let you know I may not be on very much or at all for a while - My mom fell yesterday and has an impacted fracture at the radial head of the elbow in her left arm. She's in a temporary cast now until she sees a orthopedic specialist Monday. Since one bone is up onto the other at the fracture she may need surgery. Internet time and service is limited at her house,she will 88 next month.

Kathy told me I could share this pm for those that might wonder where she is. I wish her mom a good recovery, and appreciate her letting me know, because I always wonder about my friends when they go quiet on Caedes.

Thank you for commenting on my post, and I'm most curious what your thoughts are.

I wish Kathy's Mom all the best, Tigz.
As for your shot, I like the textured sky and the desaturated look to the mill.
You are definitely stepping out of the litter box. :)

Sandi, thanks for informing us about the situation of Kathy's mom. When one has such an accident being 88, it's quit different than when one is a youngster.

I wish Kathy's mom from here a soon and complete recovery (as far as possible).

It's a pity that Kathy can't be on Caedes now, but I think it's evident to every one that the health of her Mom has a higher priority!

But let me not forget to say thanks for your fine image too.

Regards, Cornelius.

The result of playing around seems to be quite good Sandi. I like the dark appearance and the contrasting sky.

I am also very sorry for our Kathy's Mom and wish her a quick recovery. Thanks for conveying the message to us. I, like yourself, tend to get concerned when friends tread quietly :). Recently I found out that our Erja would be coming back soon.
About the editing of this image - sky is great, mill is fine but somehow the green tree could be altered - and do not ask what I mean as I have no idea LOL Just different, same as grass.
Lovely work and I do understand the pleasures of editing recently :)

I like what you did with this image Sandi - it actually gives quite a cool look to it and an air of timelessness.

That is a real shame about Kathy's Mom and I hope she recovers well. Thanks for passing on the message :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

A good capture of the old mill, Sandi. Nice lighting and shadows in the image. Interesting work with the added texture layer.
Sorry to hear about Kathy's mother. I hope she has a speedy recovery.
