WOW!!! Beautiful pictures! Thank you for sharing! I love the vivid colors of the balloons...and also the natural feel of the photo....fantastic job.

Do you mind me asking how you got the colors to pop out?

Thanks!

WOW!!! I love these they are really nice. I also like how the colors are so bright and clear. Did you use something to make them turn out like that? I was just wondering, either way I like them alot. Great job!!

Thanks! I actually muted the colors on these. I used TRA's Pool party action. I did dodge tehe of the balloons a little to make them "pop". (no pun intended) haha

See the pictures, hear the music, excellent set Ruthie


She makes me laugh, she makes me cry, with a twinkle of her eye

She flies like a bird in the sky,
she flies like a bird and I wish that she was mine
She flies like a bird, oh me, oh my I see, I sigh
Now I know I can't let Maggie go

Hi Ruthie,

Beautiful children and beautiful pictures! I don't know what it is about the last one, but I really like the way she is holding out that one red balloon, perfect pose!
