Brighter Days Ahead
Brighter Days Ahead
***
A great deal has happened since my last entry in December. Family and friends stunned my husband and me during the holidays with a new computer and up-to-date programs. Things were finally up and running earlier today, and I've barely scratched the surface of the latest software tonight. So 2014 is off to a blazing start!
I hope that everyone celebrated the arrival of 2014 in style, and that all of you have a wonderful new year ahead. On with the show!
Things just keep on getting better...finally made it to my e-mail box, and was startled to learn the daisy trio photo was a Finalist and POTD. What a fantastic discovery!
Congratulations to all November Finalists and Winners! But it will take awhile to visit your galleries to comment. Thank you for understanding.

  I am so happy to hear that your new year is off to such a wonderful start with the new computer and your Finalist and POTD> That is exciting news and hope the good fortune continues the rest of the year.
Such a gorgeous floral to start out with and it sure does remind us of brighter days ahead. Beautiful colors the orchid has and I love how you filled the page with it. Have a wonderful day dear friend, take care.

  I'm SO thrilled for you both, Mary.

Congratulations on your new computer.

And I DO hope that you'll take it easy with the visits and just have fun with you new toy.
I bet none of us are going anywhere.

I'll be looking forward to many amazing images on your gallery.

This one sure is a beauty. And whenever I see your images of orchids I always think: Character.

You seem to capture their character as well as their beauty.

Well done!

  How lucky are you, a new computer you say!! I was thinking of getting one but after talking to a lot of people I think we need a new network!!!! A beautiful full framed floral image, well taken. I think we all understand how much time it takes to comment, especially when things are working correctly. Good to hear from you again=^..^=

  Thank you for commenting, Ray.
And thank YOU, Pommers, for your always-sweet comments and for taking the time to drop by with such a refreshing(and sentimental) image.
Wish we could toast the New Year with some of that lovely red juice!! Oh, what the heck ~ (glass held high) here's to you, Mrs. Swan! (Can't wait to hear your similar response!) ;-D
May 2014 bring you bushels of goodies, and photo ops too numerous to count!
