        The lack of sharpness, and the arrangement of an undistinguished background, including the strong mix of colors beyond the actual flowers take on an unreal, yet beautiful quality of a painting.

        I have more thoughts on this subject and will attempt to post them later about the paintings vs photos that I display in my home vs the many that are put away in computer memory, photo albums, and boxes of photos.

        On the other hand, I have a good “Photoshop” of your home sans all the wires and negative parts before an earthquake and car accident changed it slightly. A good example of where Photoshop can excel.

            Yes, I sent you a copy of it several years back. I will try to find it. One thing that always bothered me in older cities was the wires all over the place. Even in the beautiful city of London, their method of phone wires is like a spider web. This is one place where “Photoshop” is useful. I also hate cell phone towers muddling up the beautiful landscape. My son Mark has a friend who actually paints those awful things and sells them as “ART”~!

            PS: what are you doing up so early~? I thought that I was the only one who got up before the sun~!

            Oh my or me,
            I am awake at three
            nature is so cruel you see,
            but why must that always be~?

            All I needed at three
            only to take a little pee~!
            but awake time is not free
            at least not for you and me.

            No more sleep for me
            my brain is awake you see
            it always wants to be so free
            coordination sun, fun, and me.

            I have written a diatribe on the different types of art and will try to post it today after gathering a few photos. (may even plagiarize one of yours)
