Kathryn, Isn't it great when an image strikes so many with the same reaction. The keyword to this is obviously "mood", it popped into my head before I read any of the comments. This is excellent work! Just one question; what the heck were you doing in west central IL? #1225094

Kathryn (Love) Scheet level-classic April 02, 2005

thanks so much Danilo, Wendy, Kathleen, Donna, and Steve for the great comments!

Well Kathryn, For some reason I always thought you were out east somewhere. how funny! You know, even though I've lived more than half my life in the Ozarks, I was born and raised in Chicago. #1225223

What a lovely photograph. It just says "come here and be calm". Thanks for sharing!
What is Picasa? I only have Photoshop Elements 2 so am wondering what program that is worked over in? #1228857
