You have to love that very dark finish on the door in contrast to light grey stone. As for the straightener in PS, for some reason, mine recently, automatically crops the image to a square format.... so for me... I use the old fashion method now. #10856077

What a beautiful and ornate doorway, Michelle. The west doesn't have much to offer with the European influence and beauty like this. It's so beautiful to see it in the USA and Canada. So what do you think of the one click straightener? I am forever having to straighten. I shoot high on the right. This one would have been a bit of a trick but it found a good line, (if that is how it functions?), and did a great job! :D

I commented back on my Lug Nut's. :)

HAPPY FALL TO YOU!
