Very creative and classy idea...lovely quote too and the images you've included certainly speak of summer as the hint of a light breeze slightly bends the grasses and flowers...nice work, Nigel.

It's a beautiful composition, Nigel, perfect for a card or a DT. I just put it on my desktop. Only thing I would have done a little differently ( and this is only my preference), is make the background a little less bright. The sentiment goes perfectly with the image(s) and I like the way the colors change across the screen from frame to frame. Very attractive post.

Interesting post and it reminds me of a slide show. The quote is perfect for the photo's. Very creative Sir Nigel.

I really, really like it Nigel. I like the concept, and the execution, very well done. Cynlee may have a point there regarding the bright background. Very beautiful.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round??

Makes as great artistic desktop - clean and beautiful.
I agree with Cindy - a little less bright - perhaps a tad creamier for the background would have been a personal preference.
I think it would look very nice printed and framed as well :)

A great experiment Nigel. The pictures are lovely and summery. I think I agree about the bright white background. If you want your image as wallpaper then I think it's a bit bright, however if you want your image as a work of art, then the white is perfect.
