I love this chap, Paula! His expression is superb and your new addition to the shot makes me smile. π Big time!
Hope you’re hanging on to your serenity this morning π
When you say a forthcoming topic are you referring to your “Shape” challenge or to my next “inspiration” challenge? π You know I am quite “liberal” Debbie π
This is a natural one that can’ t be faked! π Wonderful shot, Paula! Keeping the colour, you have added even more…hypnotizing effect to the photo.
Here’ s mine – I have followed your footsteps maybe a touch more than usually π : https://esengasvoice.wordpress.com/2015/01/18/black-white-sunday-surprise/
Have a lovely Sunday! xx
