Palms, I'm happy you liked it!!

It is funny you had to check the original to see if it was there when you took the photograph lol lol

Comments like that do wonders for my ego :-)

I've added critters to different images that I posted and this is only the second one that got "caught"...

Lovely photo with your new camera Palms....many more to come hopefully...

Liked your PWL picture Frank, the frame finished it off nicely..

Getting expert with the ahb Palms, its a lovely painting....

I just did a Lucis art filter on mine and three borders...

Thank you for the kudus, Barbara and Palms. I think they do come in a "pink" variety, but the center's are more purple than pink. Mine probably look more like dogwoods. LOL

Nice image. Those rain drops really stand out. Not so much in my rendering, but thought I would brighten it up as an "after the shower" image.
