Now this is one way cool looking picture that has a beautiful and artful look to it Patrick. You take simple to such higher levels and have a way in presenting them with a creative look. A knot in a knot hole and the textures and colors are so beautifully captured. I predict that this one will be in the winners circle for sure my friend. #11381115
