    I saw the same 'bath floating' layout! Strange how the angle of view makes such a difference...

    Given the option, I'd rather be floating on my back! Great job, Kathe.

    I really like that the ribbon calls to mind blood but upon closer inspection is something very benign.

    A hauntingly evocative photo, beautiful and disturbing at the same time.

I love comments and will attempt to reply to each one. However, lately I have been getting "Unknown" comments that are linked to some sort of web page. I will never open this sort of comment and will immediately mark as spam. I am not interested in opening something that could be detrimental to my blog security etc. Never have enjoyed hackers! Thanks!
