Wow... your new sky suits the light in the fg, and adds a very 3D quality to it! Nicely done! #1146211

OMG!! Thank you all!! I had serious doubts about posting this one. I didn't think it was good enough or believable. I really appreciate all your possitive reinforcement!!! :) #7678943

It works perfectly with the old church ruins, Mary. I thought perhaps it was a new sky (being a major swapper myself) but it is wondrous. #7679387
