It is tempting to take credit for that glow, but I got lucky with backlight that really worked for me.<br /><br />It appears that we might finally be into summer and puddles are beginning to dry. The Husband even planted some flowers last week. Whoopee!

No white egrets on my trek out to the road and back, much less my garage "outings".<br /><br />We are are still having cool weather, but it has been beautiful. I am enjoying it immensely. Since I struggle with heat, I can empathize. Does the heat cause something like heat stroke for you? <br /><br />Thanks for the comment on the image.

So part of my walk/exercise was the pleasure of watching them. We just don't see that in the "garage."<br /><br />Out cooler weather turned very warm yesterday,Monte Stevenshttp://montestevens.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018576996941070707.post-78002150617471572102011-06-01T08:06:13.897-07:002011-06-01T08:06:13.897-07:00Earl - Thanks for the comments on the image.

I am delighted that you like my effort and hope you enjoy browsing Shadowhouse Creations.<br /><br />You have put your finger on exactly what I fear: that we will go straight from winter to the deadly heat of summer.

I will be checking out these texture sources you've mentioned.<br /><br />Be careful about wishing for warmer weather too soon -- you might get more than you wish for.

I am having a wonderful time exploring this, and I have wondered if they will connect with others.<br /><br />Yeah, Jerry's(Shadowhouse)textures make my efforts look quite sad. Of course, there are several other sources out there. I remember Mark said he uses some from Flypaper. The extent of possibilities is a bit dizzying, but tantalizing.

Much better than I usually can make. This image is superb. <br />I think the hours on the treadmill will go faster now that you have the iPad to wile away the time. Although it's still no substitute for walking outdoors, you might as well make the most of it. A little distraction goes a long way.ken bellohttp://oneowner.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
