You forgot the wings.At first glance my eyes tricked me into seeing this rather odd image. I've sketched on it a bit to make it more obvious; incase other people's eyes are less likely to wander into Fantasia

You forgot the wings.
Better?

If things look a little out of proportion, it's because I tried to work with the shading on the wall instead of drawing the wings the way I think they should be, not that that would necessarily have made it better.
Anyway, thanks BobbyBoomer, for helping me amuse myself today. I hope it wasn't too annoying.
Nice reflection of the umbrella.
Fantastic. The phrase"They don't build them like that anymore." certainly applies. builders are in too much of a hurry to get to the next job to make this type of architecture feasible in today's world. A sad thing, in my opinion.Hi ALL - Susan & I are on a 6-night trip through Virginia (VA) & southern Pennsylvania visiting Civil War battlefields (Petersburg, Manassas, Gettysburg, & Fredericksburg) which I may turn into a travelogue - just not sure how many American Civil War buffs are on this forum?
But our last stop (on the way home to North Carolina) is at The Jefferson Hotel in Richmond, VA, capital of the Confederacy - this is a wonderful 5-diamond property - probably our 6th visit over the years (just a 4-hour drive from home) - below, a couple of pics from the web - first is just a portion of the beautiful lobby w/ a statue of Thomas Jefferson (author of the Declaration of Independence & third president of the USA) - the magnificent glass dome is only seen partially; the second pic descending into a large space where events are often held - an important one is the Sunday 'Champagne Brunch' which we'll be enjoying tomorrow - I usually stick w/ the seafood, e.g. oysters on the half shell, salmon (smoked & poach), mussels, various types of cooked fish, etc. - of course, many other choices, including omelettes & other delicious breakfast items; carving stations; and numerous desserts - if you are EVER in this area, this BRUNCH is a MUST (and I don't like brunches - ) - Dave

The results are just superb tp. Colour, framing, sharpness and IMPACT.Took a few pictures of flowers over the last couple of days. All of these are tweaked, some a little, some a lot.
