  Hi Toni, Rolan, Stefania, Ron, Robert, Dominick, Laura, Philippe, and Tommy! Thanks so much for stopping and commenting on this. I appreciate hearing from each one of you.

I had fun doing the candlelight shots, and I liked the way this one turned out. Let me warn you though. A candle can be hotter than it looks. I burned the edges of my poor flowers--didn't think the candle was close enough to do any damage. So--they didn't get to pose for me again today.

Laura: You are so nice to me. I found your picture right away last night. : )
