Ellen- I can't say I have ever seen these flying dutchmen and I always get a charge out of seeing something I hav'nt before. Now if I ever seen them, I will know what they are thanks to your incredible talent and your presentation of them here. Beautiful crisp colors and details. You are right about that background. It is gorgeous and what a compliment to the flowers.
Incredible work my dear friend.
Annie and I hope that you have a wonderful day and that it will bring you much joy. #8533814
