Hey There L!!! I've just checked out you past few days posts!!! Awesome stuff......wow you are such a gited Landscape photographer - you make everythign come alive!!! Awesome stuff. I love this purple playground, the sky has such beautiful hues!!! I had the most awesome experience last thursday it was sunset and there were rain clouds inthe sky and then in the midst of it all was a perfect rainbow. I have never seen a full rainbow before - with a perfect arch...but last Thursday I saw one and I was totally in awe of it's beauty......and as the sunw as settingit illuminated the one sde - truly a gift from God, a little reminder of his Brilliance and Beauty!!! Have a great day my friend!

Amen to what Markus said, and WOW again, dear lady!! :) This is utterly glorious!!! Stunning silhouettes, magnificent gradation of tones, and the combination of that heavenly streak of gold with the beautiful purples here is absolutely matchless. And I truly love the title too. :) If there is to be a playground in paradise, I’ll say this has to be it. Certainly my kind of playground. :)
