Creative photo art Merna. I like your placement of elements and the super sized moon gives the image a sureal feeling.

Nice work. #1341927

Hi Merna - Wonderful work in this beauty! All the best for 2011! #9147462

Hi Irene: I think I might use this photo next Halloween. It does look little spooky. This cemetery is about a mile from my home and it is called "Boot Hill." I know several people that wanted to be buried there. No flowers, hardly any trees and 105 degrees in the summer time. But we have many cowboys in this area. Thanks, Merna #9149163

Hi Nadia and here we are in the year of 2011. I wish the best for you in the coming months I always admire your work so much, I find myself setting here wondering how I could make my photo so clear and deep in color along with the images that you choose to take. I so love your work and you are a wonderful friend. Sincerely, Merna #9149173

Your work is fantastic. Looking at it, I find myself wanting to see each detail, as first you see the moon with such clarity, then I see the starbursts, and then the eye moves on. Congratulations on creating this. #9162960

Merna I love the image and what you have done to it. But reading through the comments I am thinking that if you use this for a halloween shot it would look spookier if you made the whole thing darker. #9179311

I think it should be just a tad darker but I know I have seen the moon in the daytime as well. This is well thought out. How is the layering lessons going? It takes time and patience. #9187926
