Description
Early one morning, before work and before sunrise, I was wandering out to my garden to make sure Jack Frost hadn't taken the last of my flowers. As usual, I had my camera in hand to bring with me. The moon was so bright that it was almost like daylight once my eyes became accustomed to the dark. As I approached my little garden pond, I noticed a reflection in the water. I was surprised it was so colorful in the moonlight and then I took ... a closer look! There sitting on a little toadstool...was one of rayburg's faeries!! She wasn't startled by me, or the flash of my camera, at all and I assume that is ray's influence and love that gave this lovely little maiden her friendliness. She was all dressed up and she just seemed to be waiting patiently for something. I think it may have been the sunrise.
I dedicate this little faerie and my yellow flowers to my dear RR Dad ~ rayburg! :-)
The photo of the flowers in my garden was taken by me with my Pentax Optio MX4. The photo of the butterfly was taken by my good friend and my online sis here in RR, L.Cherlindrea. The cute little faerie was created by, and purchased from, Outlaw By Design. I've attached the originals at the bottom for you to see; also in the rayburg style. ;-) Postwork was done in Paint Shop Pro 9.01.
I hope you all enjoy and thank you so much for your kind comments on my last. :-)
((((Hugs))))
