Thank you Carol - I'm so happy that you enjoyed my gallery. When I get a chance I will check yours out too!

Thank you Michelle. I think we took this shot over and over again for about an hour. No kidding! I wanted to make sure that the details would be clean and only the water and hair would show action. I had a very patient model - Blaze. :-) #3223523

Thank you Linda! This is the second time I entered this photo. I tried in one of the summer's monthly theme competitions, but did not get the nod. I'm not sure what my chances are to the next round, but I got my fingers crossed!
