Thanks so much, Lani! I thought about waiting and entering this in the October contest, but decided to squeeze it in last minute for September...so you're probably one of the few people to see it!Carolyn J. Connolly October 01, 2006
EXCELLENT effects here, Brian - making for a VERY creative image!! GREAT title for it, too!! :o) I know what you mean about not many people seeing our images when we put them on RIGHT at the end of the month!! Mine went on eight images after yours, and I'm yet to receive one comment on it!! Oh well, 'dems de breaks' - LOL!! ;o) #3394421Brian Lobdell October 01, 2006

Great abstract!! I wish I could do abstracts, but apparantly my brain isn't abstract enough, though some might argue that point. LOL! #3453350Brian Lobdell October 15, 2006
Thank you Jim and Tricia! These abstracts are always an interesting endeavor... the image doesn't always end up the way I thought it would, but sometimes its a nice surprise! #3454443Tamera S. Phillips October 26, 2006
