Cathy :) #56959

Damian P. Gadal May 26, 2019

Very very nice - really like the composition! #56981

Joy Brown May 26, 2019

I think I need to go the mall!!! Super shot, Dolores! #57016

Robert Mann May 26, 2019

Wow, Dolores! You were allowed to take pictures in a mall! LOL! This is wonderful and the color reminds me a bit of your blue ceiling! Great! #57045

Murry Grigsby May 26, 2019

While you looking up I picked up the $10 bill you walked over :0) Seriously, Dolores, very nice shot. The composition and colors make a fine abstract. #57072

Mette Vendelboe Allison May 26, 2019

You are a master at this type of photo -reminds of your first place winner (was it the first..). Perfection simply! #57105

Sharon E. Lowe May 26, 2019

Delores, gorgeous shot! I'm seeing a pattern here though with mall shots ;_)! #57108

Dolores Neilson May 26, 2019

Thanks again so very much BT!! Much obliged for your continued support! Happy shooting!

I'm so delighted you approve of my shot, Cathy!! Thank you for taking time to post your complimentary comment. Have a super weekend! We're going to be swimming be tomorrow according to the weather report...lots of rain...and with the accumulation of snow already on the ground..gurgle...gurgle!

Bonjour Damian!! Merci beaucoup! Happy day my French friend!

Hi Joy!! Thank you to you! I'm really not a mall babe like I used to be! I only go when I HAVE to (exchanging a pair of jeans for my daughter in this case)...I dislike the congestion, dodging people, countless miles to access the stores you want to reach...yuk!

Robert... I wondered if it was ok to photograph this...figured someone would quickly bring it to my attention if it wasn't permissable. I actually heard a two way radio in the distance but nobody approached me to denounce my photographing the sky light. That would explain why there were suspicious looks from some of the mall goers! I appreciate immensely your complimentary comment! It reminds ME of my blue ceiling too! Except this is natural sky through sky lights and the other is a blue painted architectural ceiling. Have a great weekend!

Gee Murry! I went to exchange a pair of jeans and ended up spending over $150!! And I walked over 10 bucks? LOL!
A shoe store was having a going out of business sale and bought Nike and New Balance sneakers for birthdays and next Christmas! I guess my mall trip turned out OK...got a pic and sneaks out of it! Thanks so much, Murry! Always delighted and appreciate your delightful posts! #57117

Dolores Neilson May 26, 2019

Greetings Mette!! Thank you!! Though I think I'm far from a master at ceiling shots...I think it coincidental that I discover a patterned domed sky light ...with beautiful blue skies as backdrop! When I returned less than an hour later, the skies were white. I appreciate your generous and complimentary comment immensely!

HI Sharon!! THank you so much! This is my first mall shot actually. "Ceiling Blue" was shot at a restaurant (not in a mall) my aunt introduced me to. I can understand why you think there's a pattern of mall shots..both a similar.
Many thanks again for your support. Have a super weekend! #57139

Debbie S. May 26, 2019

Great shot! I love the web-like graphic nature. And the colors are bold and beautiful too. just between you and me, I'd rather have a great shot then $10! lol #57177

Mette Vendelboe Allison May 26, 2019

Dolores. You might just have had a lucky day but it still take wide open eyes- always looking for good pictures. #57194

Dolores Neilson May 26, 2019

Thanks so much Debbie! The graphics was what appealed to me also.
Yes, sister friend! I couldn't agree with you more about a great shot versus $10!!

Mette...that was awfully nice of you to give me some credit. I don't think I deserve too much, God paints...I just record it. #57195

Mark Oxley May 26, 2019

Another masterpiece of creativity Dolores!! Reminds me of a spiders web, so much so that I half expect one to appear when looking at this. #57293

Gary H. Minish May 26, 2019

WOW!! You did it again Dolores! So this is the garage you park that saucer in? The perfect comp and the razor sharp detail make this spectacular! #57341

Carol Engstrom May 26, 2019

Very cool! #57352

Dolores Neilson May 26, 2019

Hi Mark!! Thank you so much! For your compliment that brought me a huge smile! So nice of you to take the time!

Greetings Gary! Hah!...you caught me.. I don't park the saucer in this garage, the aliens do! Maybe someday they'll take me to their world and I'll bring back some photographs. Maybe a grand prize winner, eh? Many thanks, GAry! #57378

Kathleen Clemons May 26, 2019

Dolores Neilson May 26, 2019

Thank you, Kathleen! I appreciate that alot! Hope you've escaped the NE blizzard that we received last weekend! We're still shoveling out! #57543

Judith G. Secco May 26, 2019
