Ah, here it is.....LOVE IT! Wonderful work Dawn! Sometimes your work is so beautiful you don't even have to add a PS effect. Hope you don't mind me saying. #5882441Dawn M. Schneider May 04, 2008
first of all candice you are so kind to me with your praises and I thank you very much. I like to take what I call "real" photos as much as possible with as little fixing as possible. but everyone here in bp makes such beautiful and stunning images that I am trying hard to add effects and filters to create some art as well. I have sooooo much to learn and visiting yours and others galleries are inspiring to me. thank you again candice! #5884206Aimee C. Eisaman May 05, 2008
