Oh you’re quick off the mark Sharon! Thank you so much…amazing what you can find on a walk after dinner!!! I took my camera not thinking I’d get anything worthwhile!!
So I was pleased how this came out
Kristina K
wonderful perspective and lighting..no pun intended..lol..:)) k
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Thank you Kristina. I’m so glad you like it…and no pun taken
I didn’t trust myself to get the exposure right, so I set the camera on automatic, and this was the result! I am glad I didn’t risk it…xxxx

I love this gorgeous, brilliant work xxxxxxxxxxxx
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Thank you so much sweetie…I was pleasantly surprised at how well it came out, actually….I was just mucking around to see what would happen and if the existing lighting would be sufficient. So maybe it should be ‘brilliant result’...maybe, though I would never have used that adjective
;)

Magic shot Jan. Tis great. The scripture is perfect for it.
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Hi Gail…oh an hour ago!! I guess you were sensible and left the Bubble at a decent hour, but time’s run away with me. Happens when you’re having fun!
THank you so much for your lovely compliment. I just knew the verse which had to go with it…I could see it when I first saw the results of yet another experiement. And this one actually worked! (My failures never see the light of day, but are trashed immediatley! haha)..xxxx

This image and verse go very well together!xx
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
I’m so very pleased you think so Marie. As soon as the image appeared on the computer screen, I thought of it…no…as soon as I saw the lamps it came to mind, though I had to hunt for it!lol..Or should that be shame on me?
But thank you so much for your affirmation and support. I really value both enormously..xxxx

Beautiful image and such a worthy cause. lovely work :-))
Jan Stead JEMp... replied
Many thanks my friend. I was thrilled when the available light proved sufficient and matched the words I had in mind.
I couldn’t agree with you more about the worth of the cause…it’s such a privilege to be able to donate proceeds from sales to it and help in some very small way. I’m thrilled that the group was started…xxxx
