Good Night, Sheila.
Sheila, my sister in law, passed away today with my husband, her brother, at her bedside. Be at peace, Sheila.

Very touching!! Great pic!!! -- B.B.
I knew someone would pick up on the shadows thing and I could have guessed it would be you, Sam ;-) I'm not sure why it is, but I didn't pick it up until I'd actually posted. I may try a redo with a darker coloured floor, or fiddle with the lighting mix. Thanks :)
Very nice atmosphere in general-the shadows on the floor wouldn't be quite visible. I just have the impression that the bed-sheets look TOO old. I mean they have a hint of ageing. Is it something intended or did it happen by acident? I just have the impression that the deceased woman is dead for quite some time there....
This is the first time I have looked again since you first posted, Karen. This version is much improved. As a Poser image, it's fantastic. As a reminder of what happened in my life recently, it's just so very painful. Seems like we both went through the emotional mangle. I do believe you have created a real work of art here. Using the stuff of your life to make a truthful image is one of the cornerstones of art.
