I have had this one in my files for awhile, Since I was not sure about it after playing with the post work.

I have decided to share it with you, and let you make the call.

I also want to let you know that I have been in touch with our very good friend Cindy (cynlee). It is very much a slow go for her, with very limited time she can spend on the puter because of her illness. She is confined to her house for the most part. She gave me permission to share this with you. Maybe later on I can give you more of an update on her. I consider her such a good friend, and can only hope she continues to get better. she did mention a year of recovery. I sure hope it is not that long for her.

Thank you in advance for your comments, either nay or yay on this one.

Like to wish Cindy from here a complete recovery. Hope she will be able to return on Caedes, as we really miss her.

Sandi, about your image: Bob made a comparison with the 'dabbling' he does, aka 'Bobonizing'. Your 'Sandinizing' is at least as good as what he does, lol.

Very fine post, my friend.
Regards, Cornelius.

This is both serene and beautiful, Sandi.I love the immediacy of the scene and the detail and lighting played up by the use of Orton's method. I wish I were there. I wish I were anywhere (else)! lol When I am able, I hope to post an image with more detail on what happened to me. For now I use a laptop in bed and don't spend much time on it as Sandi mentioned.I think this image deserves a great big yay, Sandi!

Nice comments by COG and nice to hear she is slowly improving.

If someone doesn't look at this one full screen then they are doing themselves and you an injustice Tigz.

The lightly toasted Norton looks great.

I'm not sure why you had doubts about this one, its a beautiful piece of impressionism. After seeing four snapshots in a row this jumped out of the voting booth. I dont like frames but here they work as accent lines and the whole shot is a canvas.

I'll have to be honest. I don't care for this particular special effect. I prefer the "reality" view.
