Cheryl, this is an amazing composition, with great selective focus and wonderful lighting! I love the way this fades towards the edges making for an eye-catching and beautiful composition! #4624146Cheryl Meisel August 09, 2007

This is glorious - you must have a beautiful backyard. I am envious, my backyard is prairie and grasshoppers right now. Got to "check out" the rest or your gallery.Cheryl Meisel August 13, 2007
Thank you so much, the yard keeps us busy lol. The GOD BLESS we need as my mother has shingles, my grandson chickenpox (after the vac)(both live with me) so I NEED God's sweet blessings lol. So kind of you to give them :).Mitch Spence August 15, 2007
Very much like your angle and selective focus here, Cheryl. I haven't seen one honey bee this year, not one--just wasps and bumblebees and like that. It's a worry that they seem to be disappearing all across the country. Oh, so sorry, your dealing with shingles (ah, so painful) and chickenpox all at the same time. #4652416Cheryl Meisel August 15, 2007
Thanks Mitch, and NOPE I don't have many either of the honey bees :(Vicki L. Filippin August 24, 2007
