Oh, no, I thought you'd joined the Dark Side! I'm crushed. :) A good night's sleep will do this to people, get them all cheerful and wonderfully upbeat. Maybe people should be prevented from sleeping too much when they're in a bad mood, or else they go pretty on us, hmmmmm.

This looks good though.

Go for it Ursula! I'm pretty sure yours will knock socks off anything I could come up with :)

This gets me thinking about the possibility for another picture, where you have a top part of trees like you have here, maybe even darker and more gloomy/dreadful, and a similar size bottom part with roots, a sort of "reflection" of what's up in the air, but underground. I'm going to try something like that. Gotta get myself a good gloomy picture of trees, which shouldn't be hard this time of year ... :) Added: I hope you don't mind me taking your idea and extending it for a picture for myself.

Comment by CNovack:
Very subtle texture overlay frames it in that it gives a vintage feel and look to the composition. Gives it an old feel to add to the old world charm of days where the streets are cobblestone and laundry was aired to dry. Interesting cultural study too - pictures can capture the culture of a place and this it does quite nicely.

This just shouts 'Spring'. The delicate 'watercolors' of blues and yellows are soft and that compliments the soft delicatness of the flower. Lovely colors in this composition.
