Thank you, Alida. It was a wonderful adventure watching and recording the leaves while they slowly worked towards disintegrating. So many beautiful details to record and play with in PSE.

Dear l’Ina, the idea of taking… ONE… PHOTOGRAPHING it at different angles as developmental “phases” in your media of choice, PhotoArt…again, like VIVA…blows the lid off my linear …2D… thinking and has expanded the boundaries of the contest criteria as …I envisioned it!! WOW!! You are ALL opening up my creative mind!! Thank you so much!… To viewers, please visit the Beauty and the BUZzz…when and what contest blog discussion to read the creativity behind the creativity of these artists!!
