Hi Michele,

A fabulous view you show here. I really like the color of the frame you chose, it fits well to the colors of sweater the woman wears and the trees.
It's a nice inviting view with excellent lightfall that adds a lot. I also love your composition and your POV. Well seen and done, my dear. Go on, with this nice work. Compliments!

Warm greetz and huggsss...
Albert Jacobs :)

Take Care,
Michele~

Michele - A lovely and relaxing scene; well done. On the frame, the color is a bit too "pink" in my book but I am not a good "go to guy" on color issues. Like Doyle, I would have preferred a nice, thin, simple black line frame. Whether or not you fill it with a complimenting color, that is another question.
You near-color-blind friend, Jan
PS: I have trouble matching my socks!

Thank You so much for the frame directions Doyle--- I think I know that -- but got a short in my brain waves last night -lol !! This pink thing I really regret... thanks for being sooo kind about it .

Also as soon as I read about a 'solar flare-' I saw it -- Sooooooo Strange-- before I even saw that you had so kindly circled it and added it as an attachmnent in case I was confused...
Thank You very much for your always helpful comments and great critiques Doyle !!!
With much appreciation,
Michele~

Doyle D. Chastain Doyle D. Chastain   {K:101119} 3/20/2007
Michele. A Beautiful scene . . . well composed and framed. I would suggest a very thin black frame around the image before you do any other framing since it helps to contain and define the image and creates a separation of the image from the frame. That is a subjective thing but it is my opinion and you DID ask! :)

I also noted a solar flare reflecting that seems a atd distracting . . . I'm just pointing it out to you so that you know to watch for them and what they are. Looking very good Grasshopper!!! ;)

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Oh this is beautiful, Michele. The fantastic rows of blooming cherry trees and the green lawn - now I really wish for Spring to arrive. I see your far ahead of Denmark.
The frame is rather refreshing and suits the blossoms well. A courageous choise instead of the usual dark frames, but maybe I would go for a more conservative one - hard to say really!
Also nice seing the woman who´s sitting there in the middle enjoying the day, and the girl in the pink sweater.
Take care
Annemette
