      Thanks. That’s a particularly reflective piece of river, but they are repairing the bridge, so we haven’t been able to get there since March. I hope they finish rebuilding it before next spring. It’s a lovely little park. I miss it.

    Wow! Now that is blue (sky and moon pic) and fabulous! Love the collage, as well. Such a nice variety and love the contrast. I think the tiled view shows off these collections of themed pix so well.

      I like the tiled mosaic format, but I usually have to keep messing around with the pictures to get it to come out right. I wish it gave me a little more control, but I’ve gotten good at tweaking it.

      Blue was a nice subject. I’ve got thousands of “blue” pictures, so my challenge was not doing all sky or all water or all flowers and trying to get a variety.

      That moonscape was spectacular and it was made possible because the caterpillars had stripped the oaks and I could, for a couple of weeks, actually SEE the sky … which I usually can’t from April through November … and then the rest of the year, I can’t open the back door because we’re snowed in.

      Nice to have you back. Next time, see if you can swing by Massachusetts! Love to entertain you!

        See? A perfect example of good things coming about as a result of terrible ones. I would love to visit you one day. You are so right about the tiled mosaics. You shift one to get it in a better spot and it changes all the others.. like one of those games we used to play with the photo comprised of squares in a frame.. all mixed up and you had to take turns moving them into the empty square until they were all in the correct order. Do you remember/ Hard to describe.
