@bruni the trouble is that we don't really feel that much different inside! :-)
July 26th, 2011  
Wow, you looked great and posed like a model. I bet ther is another kind of beauty added with the days or years.
July 26th, 2011  
Look at you, Ms. Model. ;-) Amazing how the years go so fast, isn't it?
July 26th, 2011

I copied thisinformation here for the time beeing until i figure out where to copy this too to keep it as a reference..

There were many pink, white and red impatiens in the background. There was also one dark area (a building) in the picture.

Using Picnik, under "effects" I used "focal black and white" and honed in on the white of the lily. If you look closely at this picture you can see the stem is not as green all the way down the stem . This is because I could only focus the lighter portion of the picture in a circular pattern.

Once I did this, the the background got darker, but not dark enough as I could see the impatiens.

Next under "touch up" I used the "Clone" feature to clone the darkest part of the picture all around the flower. It took about 10 minutes to do this.

That's it! I'm fairly certain the picture wouldn't look as nice as it does here if I blew it up as I'm sure you'd be able to see some of the cloning outlines, but for here and right now, I'm happy with how it looks.

@jenrobcarr Thank you so much. .its me in my yonger days.
July 27th, 2011  
beautiful!!
July 28th, 2011  
Oh, Bruni...what a beauty you are...both then and now...I so agree with @Cherrill even though we are older we still feel younger...not sure where the years went...maybe to celebrate who we are today ALL of us ladies should go out and have someone take a photo of us sitting on the hood (bonnet) of a car! Might be fun!
July 30th, 2011  
@hwy61 yes that would make my day too. a picture of all of us!!!
July 30th, 2011  
@bruni did n't expect you to comment on that many..I know we ae all beusy but somtimes it helps to talkwrite about things to make us feeld better or to understand something better. I kno I wrote a lot today and when I posted the comment I didn't realize how much. so thank you for taking the time to look at my pictures and for your comments.
July 30th, 2011  
@bruni Oh, Bruni, I enjoyed catching up...I am really glad you pointed out the couple you did as they were important in your life and I feel you are a good friend...and one who has been so supportive of me. I want to know what is happening in your life too.
July 30th, 2011  
@hwy61 thank you Karen for saying so.
July 30th, 2011  
This is absolutely cool Bruni! You took that photo on the 50s right?
