HAHA  not that I got them - but I suggested them!! 

These wonderous works are



So far that makes 6 (that I know of)  it is hard to keep track - I may have suggested something and not realized it got the DD - not everyone says Thanks, and if I don't see it I don't know ...

SO I will be away for a bit - have to travel for work - I hate to fly, and yes, I have to get on an airplane ... it seems so unnatural.  I wish I had said I would drive down, only a day and a half to get there - but I didn't think of it until after the plane ticket was purchased , BOO...

Anyway I shall be back next week - in the meantime - I have done some work on my personal website - here - www.pattipicsphotography.com
and I would love to here comments, critiques and suggestions - is it user friendly, can you find your way around - does it answer questions or pose too many questions?  Any feedback is appreciated -

Talk to you next week !

Sorry for being gone for those friends that may have noticed my absence.  Was packing and moving, have now settled into the new place for the new year.  Here is hoping to not have to move again for many years.

Now I would like to start by sharing a few things from this year -

My dear friend   and I joined together and started the coolest, most awesomest and incredible group on DA this year -   Where the main rule is no girls in the mist, fog, or other unknown reason for such girl looking dreamy and lost.  And guess what?  There are tons and tons of artists that create incredible wonderful things that do not focus on a single girl in the mist/forest/fog  while it is a wonderful thing for so many that do it well, we like to see the possibilities of creation with out that little item.  You can still have a female, you can still have fog or mist, but check out some of the cool things submitted this year:


Then my other little group   This is for manipulations and photography and it was started to help me see great lighting and shadow in others works, as it is a part I sorely needed to improve this year.  Here are some wonderful things submitted





This year I suggested quite a few artists for DD's and these are the ones that were accepted:

I had some talented artists volunteer to help with a charity calendar for Angels of Addiction to help Children get toys for Christmas:
