Well, would you look at how clever this picture is! You see things that no one else does and bring it to life. Everything you touch seems prettier cause of how you make it a work of art.

Thanks Dee ~ evenings like that don't often happen ... thrilled to capture the magical moment.

Welcome Leslie ~ delighted you stopped by. Enjoyed your creative site also. Both you and 'sweet' Marysol are amazing women!

Hi Cindy ~ how fun! I must admit I sipped from another glass while photographing ;)

Dear Beckie ~ I'm with you! They do go hand in hand while enjoying the remains of the day.

Thanks Marmee ~ loved this memorable moment!

You're a dear Kim ~ delighted you noticed (I also loved the clouds floating by).

Dear 'creative' Tyra ~ big thanks ... a huge honor coming from you.

Thank you, dear Anna ~ you are always most kind. I DID think this photo session was a clever idea! I've taken other wine glass shots at sunset but never before attempted to capture the sun setting into the wine.

Dearest 'sweet' Marysol ~ your fine wit always make me smile ;) (I'll meet you with my camera if you chug a Chubby Mary!)
