Description
A gallery isn't complete without the infamous behind-the-bench-shot. Well, not really, but .. :)
I played and played with this picture; wanting to do SOMETHING with it. I found it best in b/w .. and using several photoshop tools and filters and plug-ins, I came up with this. You like? I think I do ...
The title came to me as I was working on the postwork; I thought of all the conversations that took place there --- going years back to present. Gives me a feeling I just cannot describe with words... so I express it with the postwork I did.
Thank you all for your comments and help and advice, and and and ... they mean a lot to me.
You are wonderful people.
(Alright, I'll quit with the violins! LOL)
Take care and have fun :)
