A fine image, Patti. It feels like a portal to another time and place. The light play around the window is lovely and you have created a mysterious sense of depth that is intriguing.

This has gotta be Spanish influence. Built to keep out the heat and cold too. Great textures and wear marks from the years. Neat, Patti! Love your framing, too. Showing us a bit more to the right.

Steve M. Harrington June 22, 2010

Not for me. It's for an orphan whose puppy died in the flood that destroyed his home right after the locust invasion that ate the crops that would have paid for the toy he wanted so badly. #8711435

Patti Coblentz June 22, 2010

Oh, in that case ok :) #8711438

Steve M. Harrington June 22, 2010

He will be thrilled. It was a toy tank he wanted...he dreams of the day he can defend the honor of his country. Btw, his name is Steve if you would care to add a personal note. #8711442

Nikki...this image looks darker today than it did a few days back...I'm afraid my colors are very off. I have an appointment with a Mac professional to help me with this :) Thanks again! #8736748

The tones look fine to me, Patti, but I sure hope you get things straightened out on your own computer. #8736756
