Vickey and I made it to Millers Marsh with the lilies in full bloom, frogs all over the place and in a range of positions, and mushrooms starting to pop. We were able to take several photos as we started our hike around the marshy lake until my shoes started falling apart! Amazingly, Vickey had duct tape in her car and we taped my shoes back together but we couldn't finish the full hike (visited a soft bog instead before deciding we should head in and not push our luck). The was created using multiple exposure using Topaz Textures -- no frog was kind enough to be on the lily pad, facing the right direction, and next to a lily in full bloom and reflection! I then, for fun, use solarization filter in Color Efex since it didn't look real anyway.

@pamknowler Thanks Pam! We'd been joking on the trail as we headed back to the car that if only we'd had duct tape we'd be in good shape...and then she found a roll in the glove box!
I'm taken to fairy tale land. I'm looking for the princess. What a great creation. Looking at your shoes, we seem to have gone from the sublime to the ridiculous. Well persevered.
