    Only 400 W? Can see why you needed the candle to boost the level back up!

    Mel, love your newest style… and in fact your mixture of light in this is as gorgeous as TOTS (Bumscape rocks!). We so need more of from you in your present state of mind. Which is so charmingly bent at the mo…

    Another fantastic work of art Mel… I love your story telling in these pieces – we are really getting to see another side of you. I love the detail of her stocking caught behind the motion blur. Excellent work.

    Nice light. I like the heavy grain on the floor which contrasts so well with the silkiness and motion of the cloth.

    Mel, this is a masterpiece. It is EVERYTHING you doubt you do – everything! TOTS rocks, for one, but the candle, the thoughtful detail – not lost on the viewer. From the mind of YOU, translated to the eye of US – spot on, masterpiece. Paul’s comment is exact.
