Does make you wonder, what the young ones will be thinking of our lives, eh!! You certainly did a good job on this one, I was going to say, I bet there's not a lot of housework getting done, but I thought better of it, I didn't want to ruin the mood. Keep up the good work=^..^= #10896606

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the fun and for your kind comments! I appreciate them and you very much. It's wonderful to be semi retired and to have the time to do what I love doing.

Wowee Laura, this is fantastic. I love what you have done here. I wish I could do that and I know I probably could but I don't have too much time lately. I got a part-time job, 20 hours a week which is why I have been absent from BP for a while. I do miss being able to do my photography. Sounds like you have more time on your hands. Good on you! #10898917

What A Beautiful Image Laura! #10903626

Laura E. Swan level-classic November 20, 2013

Hi Ann, Tammers and Wm :)

I did this in a little program that allows us to take credit for their cool backgrounds. Wm, kinda of like your Astronaut photos.

I feel guilty having you guys LOVE these so much because they were among the easiest I have ever done and took only a minute. :)

BUT....I will gladly accept your wonderful comments and smile just as big as I would have if they had taken hours to do. :)))

Thanks so much everyone,
-Laura :D #10903645

Hi Big Sis Lydia and Ken!

Thanks very much. It's such a simple program that does these but don't they look amazing?

I see I have some gallery visiting to do. :D

HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A HAPPY FALL?! We have full blown winter now. Whaaaaaaaa! (That is me crying!)
