This Image Was Inspired By
A Book I Once Read Called
EMBRACED BY THE LIGHT.
The Author Wrote About
Her After Life Experience
(She passed away on the operating table for several minutes)
Where She Felt She Experienced Heaven.
She said In One Excerpt That The Flowers In Heaven
Had LIFE That You Could SEE Glistening!
!!! WOW !!! I say !!!
So this is the nearest thing to it I could make!
This image was made in PSE7 and my MDI program.
(Microsoft Digital Imaging)
Several layers applied.
