Illumi-nail... by marlboromaam

Illumi-nail...

Back by the screen house, there is lots of shade and thus, a bit cooler temps. But the sunlight streams through the branches and leaves of the maple tree and illuminates small sections and items in the deep shade... sort of like putting a spotlight on a performer at the moment.
Picture perfect maggie, great title great composition ....hey, first to comment on one of your pics too .....hurray ...I'm normally last !!

When I was in school the teacher scolded me by saying "No. Cromie, you can't play with that hammer. You'll hurt your fingers.

I told her "No, I won't, Jimmy is going to hold the nails for me."

I got detention for a week.
