  Amazing DDR, Merna! This is so cool and even eerie because we know birds don't fly after dark...which awakens the imagination of the viewer, making us wonder if they are GHOST BIRDS!!! This is what great campfire stories are made of! Images like this!

Love it lots!

  Okay Miss Laura: Don't tell me that you have never heard of DD birds, and that they only come out at night? They are always very friendly and hungry.
Love your lesson about the birds; it is so nice to see you sending your uplifting messages out for all to enjoy. Merna

  Your transformation from day to night is astounding Merna. The pounding waves combined with the birds in flight gives the scene lots of energy.

Great image Merna.

  Merna! Fantastic imagery and imagination. DD bird, lol! This takes what is comfortable and normal to us and helps us go into the beyond in the brain. Out of the box entirely. Oh, did I say how wonderful your DD work is - superb!

  Hello Irene: I am so hooked on Digital Darkroom, that I could just enter this category every day. But, I also feel that I can learn by participating in everything when I can.
Your approval of my work is very satisfying to me and I appreciate it very much.
I had a very humorous message from Laura the other day about the birds not flying at night. (See note from her and my response on this page.)
Thank you for all you do to make it work so well. Merna

  Hi Fernanda: I am sorry that I have not been available; Tuesday and Wednesday are my days in town. I miss hearing from you we need to write down the time when it is safe to call. Did I send you a photo of Shellene and her two sisters? Please stay well, we will talk soon. Call any time you want to. Merna
