There is a story that goes with this picture, but I have other things to say. It's my first attempt at using HDRI lighting. Sorry to have been so quiet for the past several weeks. My computer had to be put in the shop for two weeks. I practically had the DT's waiting for it to come home. Definitely had classic withdrawal symptoms. Also, on a personal note, I'd like to announce the birth of our latest grandchild, Rowan Lynn McCann-Brown, who arrived about 10:30 pm, last Thursday. He is a very sweet baby and awfully good-looking, too. (No bias there; nosirree! Grin.) Here's the credits for the picture: Bryce 6.1, Poser 6.0, PostShopPro 5.0. DAZ's H3 and A3 figures done realistic. Hiro morphs and textures are LM Takeshi; his hair is Rubio Hair; his clothing is Adventurer. Aiko morphs by me but textures are Michelle; her hair is morphography's LeHair; her clothing is Alyssia. Grasses are by Transpond and Modualz. Houses are by Bjorn Lindholm. Medieval Windmill by Bob Meski. Castle is a Net freebie, but I've misplaced info on who made it. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and taking a look. Comments are appreciated. Take care! Jeremy
