some of my favorite images Summer Daydreams

Echinacea in it's many colours always draws my immediate attention.

Despite the weather, they were always standing tall; some growing

with stems curved as they sought out the glaring sunshine that was

part of the many humid days of this last summer. I can't wait to see

what new varieties will be introduced in the summer of 2012. (many

thanks if you do drop by and comment, :-) Gail )

Hola Gail.

Simplemente, MARAVILLOSO !!.

Un cordial saludo, Joaquín.

Amazing!! Beautiful and clever work.(7)

Cheers.

I'm with Rashed-It's simply amazing how creative your mind is. Your ability to put forth such a variety of well executed works is something to be admired as well. So, when's the gallery showing?  Simply awestruck - Randall

thank you for sharing your creativity with all of us. Your works are inspiring and motivating. I love the colour - it's amazing how pretty much the same one can represent summer and fall. Warm regards, Tamara

Nice processing Gail!

Thankyou for your visit and kind words of critique, much appreciated Gunga-Jim.

Warm regards, Gail

thankyou Tamara. I agree with you. This Echinaecea is the most delicate yellow, so very different from it's predescessors. When I first saw it, I thought the petals appeared as if they were as delicate as fine tissue paper.

Your input is much appreciated, as is your visit, Kindest regards, Gail

G--GGGG allery showing???? You are too kind, I wish! But you never know what the future holds. I'm just so glad you appreciated the image so much Randall. I never seen to have enough time in the day as it is, but hopefully it will slow down. I have so many I want to print.

Your comment is so appreciated, and I know that you truly mean it...that makes it all the more special.

Sincere thanks, Gail

Lovely to hear from you to to hear you enjoyed this compositon Alberto. I'll be thinking about you, praying that storm does not come your way. Too many hurricanes this year, and too many suffering the world over.

In my thoughts,  Gail

How cool is this photo! Why, it actually looks like an impressionist painting!!! There is something to be said for this technique isn't there, if done well! And you, Gail, are very very good at it!! Beautiful work!!!

Very Artistic ! And I can see two hands holding a pregnant tummy ! Bill

Excellent post processing. It remind me water coloring art. Also, well presented work.  Summer is over, all what is left dream about it...
