 Wow... never would have thought at 6.2x would get third, so when it came to entering information, I decided to finish makig the strawberry glace pie, the batch of queen's jam, the batch of strawberry rhubarb jam, the anadama bread, and the couple of bags of frozen berries. We still have two cookie sheets full of berries from the 6 gallons picked, yesterday. So I still have my work cut out for me.

But it's 3 in the morning, and out of curiosity, I checked my placement. Now I'm typing this instead of sleeping?

Why?

Oh why??

Probably to thank my neighbor's daughter. We had grand and glorious plans -- but there was a wedding at Wren hall, (my place of choice. We tried improvising for awhile, and we were allowed to sneak up stairs quickly, but really didn't get what I wanted. I like this one, but my mind had such better things floating around in it. The backgrounds just kept giving difficulties!!

Well, I'm typing this without glasses, and it's uncomfortable to breathe because I think I'm getting a nasty cold. So this is the end of the weird comments,though I'll through in a couple of pictures: Though the first one may scare the crap out of you, if you're looking at it in the middle of the night:

Very clever. Well conceived and executed. I'm guessing this was taken by Wendy in one of W&M's buildings.

Wendy's ballerinas, looks a lot like motion blur, but I guess that is how abstract is achieved to some degree.

Looks like you took this from above, a little crammed in the frame, still having said that it's in my top five.

Ps love the way her dress swirls.

Your use of moment is great in this image. So far this has set itself out against the other blurred people.
