It's also a favorite of mine, dear friend. And I hope too that it will go to the top this time.
I went through (very fast) the all-time favs yesterday and saw several of yours there too. I didn't have time to comment but it made me very happy to see them there.
So congratulations and yippeee! #11445256

Hi, Kiki, and thanks for the info. Do you know what category you saw mine in, i.e., Animals? I saw yours in there, but none of mine, at least to page five or so... #11445285

Its a favorite of mine and I hope the judges will give it the gold it deserves. The whole scene is a beauty to behold. The young chicks all going after the same thing unaware of their surroundings. Good thing mom is standing watch to keep them safe. Love the colors, the message about paternal guarding, you bring out the details so beautifully. Love the framing to. Best of luck with this go round and hope the best for you. You take care dear friend, be safe. #11445443
