Mary- Happy Valentines Day to you my friend. The work you did here and the talent and creativity used shines though. Even though I dont consider this darkside work, it shows that you belong on it.
Lighting and clarity are superb.The colors are rich and vibrant. The details are outstanding. I love the effects used, but not overdone. You kept it simple yet added some dimension that is so appearling and wonderful.
See you on the darkside, will be holding the door open for you.
You take care my friend. You are special. Have a most lovely day, be safe out there. #5493976
