Beautiful image, Mike!! I really like the golden colors and the composition is great. #2902148

Mike Rubin June 16, 2006

Thanks Amy! The colors are all due to the lighting. I wish I could shoot only in the earl morning or late afternoon to dusk, And sleep away the middle of the day, But work gets in the way of that ;) Mike #2905877
