A winner in my book, too, Colleen. The lighting -- and DD work -- are exceptional. #10261181

Great job, Colleen. What texture did you use? #10261355

Thank you to everyone for the nice compliments - I really appreciate them.

Priscilla - I used a fly paper texture called muscatel - but I also made some changes with the hue/saturation on the texture as well. #10261369

This is lovely, Colleen. I love the tobacco coloring you used. I know it was a dynamite shot originally, but the PP really renders art. #10261811
