    thanks, lolowe—that’s a great mental image (especially as it was about 105 degrees there!)

    Love the duo tone here. A great image, looks seductively beautiful. Well done.

  • Tom Vaughan replied

    Thanks, Carol… I was experimenting w/ the toning, and certainly didn’t go right to here. However once I found a background I liked, the tree toning fell into place.
