These are in Paley Plaza. I liked the bright white tables and chairs in the shadow of teh walls, and I enhanced that look in Photoshop by adjusting the brightness and contrast.
Man has always been awed by the sunkissed mountains, the misty woods, the forming of waves in the ocean & other magical powers of nature. Paradise is always imagined as a place of sweet fragrance & high energy. The aromas used in incense transforms us to this magical world of tranquility in just a few moments helping us to concentrate all our powers & recharge our spirits.
I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
This is great but I think the effect would be even more dramatic if you had the background completely solid and ditched the cobbles in the foreground. A high score for originality none the less.
What great desing is here! And the feel is so good. One small red rose tucked away somewhere would have been great..but it is great onits own merit..so why mess with it?!lol
