Janet Williams:

You astound me with your creativity as far as your titles and narratives are concerned (it goes without saying regarding your images themselves!). This is a stunning image so well done and composed - but the title and narrative just add another magical dimension - you must be a writer as well as an artist and photographer. I love it Dan! #1661140
