I took this shot of the Kokopelli stained glass window it was three stories high, in Az. I saw this from the outside of the building and I knew it would look really nice form inside of the building. So.....I went in, I think it was a medical building, and my sister thought I was crazy for just waking in to take a photo. It was really hard to fix this shot up good enough for viewing, because of the height, I had to stretch the top and squeeze the bottom and I tried to get most of the railing out that I could. (Cloning) It was a lot of work, but I really like the shot, I hope you do to.

I am no artist,just a photographer,I capture what I see...
What a beautiful Kokopelli stained glass work of art with a native southwest Indian theme. I'm glad you got the whole thing I'm sure it wasn't easy. It is so magnificent it belongs in a museum...Fantastic Laura!

I do really like this...not only because you salvaged a beautiful picture out of an extremely difficult shooting situation, but also because this version of Kokopelli is a big improvement over the stylized figures used to sell Southwestern furniture or fabrics or something in catalogs. Nice light management and clarity.

You did a great job Laura, because I would not have noticed any of the things you did to make this a beautiful shot. The score should multiply quickly judging from the dance. It was a good save Laura.

What a good picture this is Laura, As you know I've posted some stained glass images recently and they are not easy. Their size makes them tricky as does the balance of light and colour. this is really good indeed.

You did excellent work with this Laura. It's a great shot. So colorful, and you can see the texture of the stained glass, too. Very nice.

Since this is a Kokopelli, does that make this building a fertility clinic?....HA HA. Small joke. I have one tattooed on me. Long story..don't ask....LOL. Beautiful color and capture. Love what you have done and the you can't even tell about the cloning. Wonderful work.
