Default Willow Weep for Me

Last photos from my weekend with the family. This first collage features the Weeping Willow. Toyville, I hope this brings back good memories. The second photo is something I worked on this AM and thought I would include in this thread. Who can resist a princess?


Willow Weep for Me

Star, Soleil

There's a lot of PP on this one. The problem: remove ugly background. Pretty well solved, I think.

The weeping willow is gorgeous Lindy and your captures as usual show its beauty off so well. I love these trees, we have them just the same over her. I will have to go and find a good example and bring it to dps. There is one next to the local church which is quite large.That would be a good one.
The second one is gorgeous and well done with the pp. She is a little angel and you have captured a precious moment. Just lovely

Jake.

The very first photo is so perfect and the colors are so vibrant, it looks like a painting! I love the collage and i LOVE weeping willows. I always thought they were magic trees when i was little, and i always wanted to have the in my yard when i got my own house. Thank you for sharing these and OH what a sweet little princess that is just darling and the background problem... NOT a problem anymore! it looks great

Lindy, I just love weeping willows - they are so beautiful, and you've captured this one so well!

And the little princess is just beautiful - whatever PP work you did, it's gorgeous, and so is she!
