This image is several layers and a remake of an older image you might remember.

The most recent layer is the water fountain w/rainbow. It was taken at the Calgary Zoo

This eye-pleasing collage is another great example of your creativity, Pom. Wonderful composition ~ it looks as though you're peeking from behind a gorgeous curtain. Love that fountain and rainbow. An all-together beautiful image! #10734756

Hi Laura, I have always wanted to go to a butterfly house but I have to travel to other cities to be able to do that. This is beautifully creative, it definitely has the Laura touch. #10734993

Hi Everybody! I've enjoyed your comments a lot! Thank you so much!!!

I am having some of my work put on CANVAS this week. Not this one yet. Maybe if I do it again sometime.

It's really special to see our work on an actual canvas.

Too bad BP doesn't offer an area where we can purchase from each other. Calendars etc of our favorite images of each others and our own stuff. They would make a pile of cash and we'd all get EFP's again cuz they'd be so happy rolling in money. HA!

I highly recommend the butterfly hut at your local zoo or Marine world etc. :) It's really hot in there but really worth it, too!

Hope you all had a great spring and are ready for summer to begin on June 21st. (Except YOU John and Ann...Is it FALL there now? Winter??)

-Laura :) #10737680

Ann Coates level-classic June 18, 2013

Hi Laura, it is winter here and we are bracing ourselves supposedly for the worst snowstorm in 20 years but it's already been downgraded so hopefully won't be as bad as first thought. #10737703

Laura E. Swan level-classic June 18, 2013

NO! REALLY?! SNOW? THERE??? Ah! Yes! I remember you have a summit there don't you! I remember seeing your photos of that area a couple, three years ago! WOW! I will be thinking of you!!! STAY SAFE and WARM!! Hope you have lots of food in the house?! Candles etc!!!?
