Hi Patricia,That is stunning IR.Beautiful capture with wonderful lighting!!!! #8693675Patti Coblentz June 14, 2010
Good morning, and thank you everyone for youe nice comments. I was wondering if anyone might think this is an IR image...the tree actually has white blossoms and it is a simple, probably too dark, blk/wht!Thanks, again :)
