now that THAT's over

don't get me wrong, i love the holidays, but i can't help but sigh with relief when it's over and the decorations are all packed away.  with that all done now, i can finally get back to current projects.  i have so many pics to edit, mainly focusing on landscapes that have been put on the back-burner for far too long.  since they aren't done yet, however, here is a really really really old pic i took when i was a teenager. talk about a blast from the past!

My 1st Give-Away!!!

i know you're chomping at the bit for a chance to win something for free, so i won't delay any longer. ;)  i thought long and hard about which prints to offer first and i'm really happy about my selection.  this is for a set of 2 vintage style 8x10 prints that i took last summer on a trip to palmyra, new york.  they are two of my favorites and i even have one of them hanging in my home.  here's how this will work: starting today, you have until next friday to leave me a comment with your email address.  i'll have my handy assistant B (my darling husband) draw a name out of a hat, literally, and i'll announce the winner.  easy peasy!  good luck!  also, be sure to spread the word, because this is a trial run and without a good response, these give-away's may wind up being few and far between, which would be a shame, because i've got tons of great stuff besides just prints lined up for the give-away's.
