I recall the original and I liked it even then, but this is wonderful! Love what you did with it! Really makes her stand out! Great Job! :~) #6887358

Excellent Pat. She is a real charmer and certainly takes command of the image. Well done. #6887700

Im sorry, Pat, but I think the vignette is too strong. I personally like the first version :) #6888734

Thanks UV, I'll keep that in mind about the vignette when I enter it again next month.

In this story she is looking into the dark from a distance, one of my mad fantasies LOL. Thanks again for your honest comment, I appreciate it!

Thank you so much Jodi! ~Pat #6889271

Really beautiful Pat... The elimination of the hill works very well. As for UV's comment on the vignette... try white or grey perhaps...

Love the song... very apropos #6891509

Thank you Joan,I will try white, I was in Painter and it had lighting so I fiddled with it LOL. Great you like the music! ~Pat #6892558

Hi there Jodi, I discovered it in some software I was using, 'PainterX', it said lighting and by jove has lots of different effects.

You did a vignette around the little boy, how did you do that then? It was very good!
