It's so nice to have you back in town!

And yes, the light is perfect. This is a wonderful shot, CQ. Lovely to look at!

That's a great effect. In the thumbnail, it looks like part of a dark paper has been roughly torn away, revealing a bright background.

Isn't gilding a great thing? The golden cross is the icing on the cake.

Read about your friend, Whit. So sad.
