Oh My Goodness, as if this could have gotten any more beautiful! Your killin' me! Simply Gorgeous! Love the snow action that you added...do you mind if I ask where you got the action? Not that I would ever use the snow action, living in Texas...LOL Another winner in my book! #7343835

Betsy Labuschagne May 27, 2009

Oh Max!! If you load even a single image to your gallery, you should expect a finalist! You manage to get two every month in the people category, that is a truly outstanding achievement my friend :)))

I will be seeing Luschka again in July, then I will do some more pics of her :) #7565235

Max Aureli May 27, 2009

Oh... thanks my Queen!!
Look who is talking??? ... did I see three finalist this month on your gallery??? LOL LOL
Yap, do Luschka again!! I will suggest, this time shot her mom too!!! :-))))

Nice name Luschka!!! #7565416

Betsy Labuschagne May 27, 2009

LOL King Max! It is just luck my friend :))) #7567790

Max Aureli May 27, 2009

Listen Queen Betsy... statistically luck happen only one time in tons of times. To my POV (right place to use the abbreviation "point of view" LOL) your luck is called something else: master!!! :-))) #7568938

Betsy Labuschagne May 28, 2009

Max, I'm quite lucky to have a friend like you :))) #7572051

Max Aureli May 29, 2009
