The vertical components of your composition gives it rhythm, and the strong lines seperate the elements.The soft round shape forms a lovely focal point.To link it with so much personal history is wonderful and you should print out the blog and paste it to the back of the frame.Marie Theronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04873852756825147600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3572300932905140618.post-59163841973130387142009-12-09T20:57:57.916-08:002009-12-09T20:57:57.916-08:00Happy Birthday!!
