Thanks everyone for your feedback. As always I am most grateful. And you know what Patricia? To be honest, I had actually taken this photo several months before the "Blue" theme in color, but never submitted it. Then when I remembered how sad she was I thought it would be a good one to use if only it were blue. So I colorized it blue and it worked out perfectly. I'd like to take credit for planning the whole thing, but I can't. I adapted though...that counts for something right? :o) #813548
