I'm so happy I got a DD this weekend for !!! Thank you again to ^SparklyDest for the Feature. I got some wonderful comments from folks and it really made my day!

I also ordered a mug and print through dA of my avatar (using this deviation ) to see how well they are made and shipped. I have to say I'm very impressed! (That means something coming from a guy that delivers to 150+ people a day.) The print quality was very good, came in a well protected tube and was in perfect shape for framing. The mug (with my avatar is clearly my mug!) came in a very well designed Styrofoam casing and both were shipped in a box with additional protection. I might post a product shot of it later. My biggest motivation for this was to see if I'd be happy receiving them, since I plan to give these away as prizes with my fairly new group #ee-motes (with different art work of course). I hope those of you who have/will join the group will be as pleased as I am with the products. I think it would be nice to promote other art from the site, and this seemed like a viable way for me to do it.

On the home-front, my daughter and I extended a garden area and planted a nice variety of Iris's last Fall around a Honeysuckle, and they are almost all coming up! That means I'll have some new subjects to point my lens at later this Spring! Keep your eyes peeled for some photos from me!
