You are so kind Mary. I'd love to send you the original file and have you work your magic on it.

For those who have not done so, I urge you to review Mary Beth's gallery. #8354232

Thank you Jeff. I had second thoughts about posting this altered version instead of the out of camera (with minor tweaks) but kind of liked how the colors looked.

Here's the other shot. #8355978
