wow…looks like a real painting…and you know what i am highly inspired with this moment so may you see my next painting reflecting your perfect shot…..i hope u dont mind…
As with the pic of ‘Pioneer Days’, this has the essence of bygone days. As much as I like this pic, I would have concentrated on the woman’s face and hands.
