I just love this! And I just love the images where they don't know you are taking pictures. You might want to clone out the fishing pole.

Nice work as always! #1666750

cj patterson August 02, 2005

thanks donald, marcie, and nadia...

i could clone out the fishing pole, but I like it there...that was something I left intentionally, just to give it an extra country feel...thanks for your suggestion though...yes, its easy to clone, but I wanted to leave it in for effect... #1666850
