Thanks Rey! You're super sweet! #10022128

I don't understand why this "serious" SP didn't get more comments first time around, Pom. Even with a somber expression, you look lovely, and the DD work is excellent. One of Life's Great Mysteries again... #10985759

Debbie Bray February 26, 2014

What a really lovely portrait, Laura! I love the straight face, you're very professional at posing for these types of shots, Laura. I am sure, one day you will look back at these beautiful images, and really appreciate the fact you did this shots. #10985797

A delightful portrait beautifully presented Sister Swanee! Good luck in the MT with this one! #10986587

Kirsten Kiki Kjaer March 03, 2014

A TOTALLY different look!

On the previous image you looked so mild and gentle. On this you look very strong.

I would NOT mess with this lady, guys! HEHE!

Beautiful work as always. #10991570

Nice Work, can you read my palm? :-) #10997731

Hello all! So sorry it has taken me forever to reply to you all.

HERE WE GO, okay??

* * *

Hi Mare! I actually had this image inside of a thread once in the long ago. I entered it into the contest through the thread. (Sounds advanced/complicated but it's not) There were not any comments on the image itself until now because it still technically lives in the thread. :)) And also thank you for the sweet comments. xoxo

*

Hi Debbie. I am already looking back!! :) I don't take too many SP's anymore unless it's Halloween. Boo! :))) I like working on older photos now. Which actually could include ME since I AM older now. Lol... Great to see you. :)

*

I brother John :) Thank you! :)) -Swanee

*

Hi Ken. Can you believe, from the dining Room window today there are icicles that are 5 feet long hanging from the roof?? Spring is no where near us yet. Brrrrr!

*

Hi Wm :) Thanks! You are always so kind!

*

Hi Little Sister Laura LeeLee. I had fun making this one. I'm really pleased that you like it so much. :D TY TY !!

*

Hi Nancy! Wow! Thank you!! xo

*

Hi Mr Tree. Thanks so very much! :D

*

I know, Sis! Isn't it nuts? It really is so different looking than the other one. That is why I shared it. It just goes to show what different effects will do. I will have to remember this one. If my BLACK BELT SISTER says she wouldn't mess with this face I better keep it handy in POSTER SIZE to hold up in case door to door salespeople come by! Heehee...

*

Hi Steve! Thanks! And yes, as a matter of fact, I can. In the house I grew up in we had a little old man from India living next door with his adult children. He was 70 or 80 years old. He told me if I would teach him to speak English he would teach me to read palms. (Not joking!) So I agreed.

POST a photo of YOUR PALM ON HERE and I will read it if you are not too chicken! HA!

Thanks all!

-Laura, Swanee, SSSLala, Miss Rose et al.

Lucky for MADAM SOPHIE, Wm left his HAND here while he is sleeping. (The man is OBVIOUSLY a MAGICIAN!)

I will continue my calculations.

Laura E. Swan level-classic March 25, 2014

(As you can see, I am now using a microscope. That is why those calculations appear so large on your screen, and no other reason.) #11008444

Laura E. Swan level-classic March 26, 2014

Okay! The results are in!

Wm Nosal Palm Reading:

1) Very Loyal Friend, Very Loyal Pet Owner (including very old fish that love him!) and Very Loyal Trekkie.

2) Talented Photographer and DDR Artist.

3) Loves Steam Trains. (I could tell by the long line that went from PEI to B.C. on his hand).

4) He will Live Long!

5) He will Prosper!

MAY ALL YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE!

This Reading Is Over... #11008843

Really a nice portrait with wonderful 'colors'.... 8o)

And I must say, a wonderful read as well... all smiles here! #11008917

Laura E. Swan level-classic March 26, 2014

Hi Mumj!!! Great to see you here and THANK YOU!!!

Well, I have NO IDEA where Wm ran off too. He had this awesome reading done by MADAM SOPHIE and he hasn't even seen his reading yet.

Maybe he scurried out of the house to LIVE LONG and PROSPER???

:D #11008925

Wm Nosal March 26, 2014

Hee Hee!
Thanks MADAM SOPHIE!
LIVE LONG and PROSPER

Laura E. Swan level-classic March 26, 2014

Well THERE you are!!! :D

Bacon Wrapped Tubed Steaks sound like a good way to LIVE LONG and PROSPER to me! Sounds like the life of Riley!

:D

I will tell Madam Sophie you were happy with your reading. She is in a deep sleep at the moment. She calls it MEDITATION but really she is napping.

Go figure! #11008956
