Wow June...awesome! How did you get the drop shadow behind the inset picture?

Hi Jeff, I just used photoshop! When you double click on the layer it offers you options for bevel and emboss. I use the pillow emboss feature and select size and contours.
Hope it was helpful!

What a clever idea JuneBug! I, too, love nature and that is where I do my best 'dreaming'. I like how you dropped a natural background behind your dreamy image. Good work angel.
Good luck in the contest!
Thanks for the visit my garden gallery..lol. Your warm words on ~miss lili~ and ~driving miss daisy~ are deeply appreciated. We have had fun with this project even though it has taken us awhile to do. I am glad that you were able to enjoy my flowers with me. Your continued support of my work is deeply appreciated :~)

A beautiful,relaxing.dreamy...capture...even w/out the back-up...love it!!!

Nice work, June. Interesting presentation, too

Another great composition in this one. The addition of the central image to the background water shot at an angle is quite apealling. A fantastic entry for the contest.

HI June..how good it is to see this posting of yours! I have missed you, my friend! I like the way you did the layout on this, and it fits the theme so well. Water pics are always so good for us. I love how the sunlight plays on the water on this pic...nice job my friend...I like it a lot..verena

Hi June, boy this image is truly keeping in tune with the current contest theme very well! While the photograpy is very good, I keep seeing the disconnected thoughts, images and sensations one would feel, it he were having a dream with these elements in it! Good job, June and my best wishes to you on the contest! Sincerely, Marilyn

Boy June, I can really relate to this...I used to go up to Manitoulin Island as a kid...a great aunt of mine had a cottage up there...in fact this looks like the same area and very dock I tried water skiing from...where on the island was this taken?...anyhow, good idea for the contest and good luck.:Pat.

June, I love the photograph. I would have let it stand alone rather than putting it on the backdrop of water. The image as composed with the dock and trees would have been perfect - the emptiness of the subject is what makes it so dreamy. Great shot. anne

Magnificaaaaaaaaaaaaa
