You probably know how much I love poetry. Right now, I'm really into Shelley.

Thanks Shirley. The projects here on UF have been a wonderful learning experience for me. But for them, I likely would never have done this . . . and each one I attempt teaches me more. Of course, Robert Frost supplied the timeless words . . .

Very nice series Doyle. The colors are so rich, I love it. Great composition on these collages. Maybe you could tell me how to make a collage with PS Elements 4.0? :) My e-mail is dakotagirl@gmail.com. I've been trying to figure it out ever since I got the program. Love your series. Great job!

WoW! Jessie - you sure know how to make a guy feel good! That's probably the very coolest comment I've received in three years as far as making me strut around the living room like a rooster (head-bobbing and all) saying "WHO'S DA MAN?"

Hehehehee

Thanks Gayle:
Like you, I seldom like to see text imbedded in an image as it detracts from the image . . . but for the Petry project I likely would not have. I also find it easier to accept in collages.

I appreciate your comments!

Doyle I <~~~~~

What a wonderful series, Doyle! I don't always like text used within a photograph, but you've done it very tastefully, and of course the poem you selected for the project is a thought-provoking one. Frost is wonderful.

This shot is different - you don't usually see pictures of buds in this early stage of life, because they're not showy or even particularly pretty, but...they are the beginning of life! How great is that!

You have my compliments for all four images in this project!
Gayle :)

So beautiful Doyle. Another wonderful triptych this one showing the beginnings of life. All four of your posts have been a story and in keeping with your choice of poetry to accompany. I have so enjoyed this excellent foursome. Well done to you......I really must do some tube work myself:):) Very best wishes ....Ray
