Fascinating image, Marsha. Great composition and I like how the sepia really makes the red body pop. Well done! :-) #200745Marsha S. Smith December 31, 2004
Much thanks, Patricia. My only wish was that the gazing ball was clean at the time. I think his reflection would have been better. #1006423Mary K. Robison January 04, 2005
That reflection is just fine, Marsha. Your PS work really makes this a striking macro. Good luck with it! #1015032Marsha S. Smith January 05, 2005
Thank you very much, Mary. I am learning PS a little at a time. What a great program. It can become obsessive at times. Thanks again. #1016375Karen Engelbreth January 18, 2005
