I have been away from the blog world for a while now.....just entering here and there...I apologize but things have been crazy busy around my house...I have also been taking the Skinny Mini ECourse for Photoshop and posting my homework....if you get the opportunity to take it....I highly recommend it.........

I was outside playing with exposure time with all the street lights on around us...this picture give off such a soft hue of orange from the street lights  but stirs up mixed feelings, calm, eerie, etc...thought I would share.
