This is most 'magical' and MOST beautiful Steve! I have been ohhhing and ahhing for several minutes now! I LOVE it! I could put a little 'fairy' in there somewhere but I would rather escape to this place myself! Genuinely beautiful colors, beautiful lighting, beautiful effects and beautiful image!! Just... WoW! #4532589

Steve M. Harrington July 20, 2007

I really appreciate your comment, Dianna. I had to play with this for a long time to arrive at something I liked. You've helped to make that seem worthwhile. :)

Jeana Clark July 20, 2007

Hey Dianna!!!
Just take another SP of yourself and add little wings then Steve would have his little 'fairy' and you'd be there!!!!!!

~ME~ #4532789

Dianna Hauf July 20, 2007

Now, WHY didn't I think of that??? LOL! I am afraid I would have to place red horns and a red spiked tail on me though, no wings! ;0 So far, Sara is the only one to wear the wings! Are we moving the party to Steve's now, Jeana??? What shall I sing tonight? :):) #4532941

Steve M. Harrington July 20, 2007

Wow, I return from BBQing and discover I have fairies and little devils in my secret place! It's all quite magical. :) Singing? How about The Battle Hymn of the Republic?

Dianna Hauf July 20, 2007

LOL!! Ok, I sang/sung a Lonestar song for her last night WITH her back turned (she wasn't allowed to watch me sing, I am shy but Mel peeked), then went and sang Elmo's World to Sara and now I guess I could do the The Battle Hymn for you! Although, maybe I will just hum it! :) #4533242

David Pratt July 20, 2007

You're welcome to visit my secret place although it is getting crowded, isn't it? I guess the secret is out. Sounds like Dave is dropping by too. :)

A beautiful, peaceful scene, Steve, and a composition and effectsthat surely add to it all. And I do love that lens flare there. :) #4536321

Steve M. Harrington July 22, 2007

Thank you, Mitch. The light was there, but not the flare. I just gave Mother Nature a little assist. :)
