Post challenge:

Hey! Look at that! I scored above a 6! Think I'll stop now while I'm ahead! :-)

And thanks, vlado. I always consider a challenge a success regardless of score if you like it. Seriously! I may even enter a few more challenges because of that.

Excellent focus and he does look as if he's just learning to fly -- even if he's a little old for that LOL I particularly like the way he is straddling the wall and looking down as if to gather his courage for taking off.

This image SO pops off the screen, Deb. It is almost 3-d. I think the foggy bg increases the illusion
