9. Great shots, what is # 4. ???
I know it is something I don't remember from my trip a zillion years ago but that is so amazing I am certain I would remember it.

Love the Venus DeMilo! How did you like Winged Victory? That one just stopped me in my tracks when I saw it.

21. I asked her about that one as well....
I THINK it's the Sainte Chappelle...It is the most glorious little stained glass church you could ever want to see. The whole chapel is glass, with just enough girders and such to hold everything up and together...It is amazing!

That ALONE is worth a trip to Paris, I kid you not....

10. These are terrific, if a bit large....
Have you checked out the function on Photobucket where it allows you to downsize your pics?

You just hit the 'edit' key over the picture, and it transfers the pic to another page where you can choose how much to downsize it ...

I usually pick the 50% mode...makes things much more manageable...

Still, very nice pics!

14. Oh shit, it is ME! ROFLMAO!!!
You caught me giving Photobucket advice...my cover is blown all to hell!

I have benefitted from your help so much...and someone else (I forget just who) advised me on how to edit the pics...

I'm loving that Photobucket!

15. Here's a couple of random shots from my PhotoBucket




These are from the Napa Fair this year. Had 'em in my sig line and had to remove them. Too lazy to redo to right size.

16. God, how gorgeous those are...
I'll just bet you used your lovely new macro lens for those...

Am I right?

You seriously need to resize them for your sig line...

I can only speak for myself...but I MISS them badly!

You look naked...and you know what I mean!

26. Since you like those ... I added another I took that same winter.





The Mallards needed 'help' so I adjusted the color back to the way it was before the old print faded ...
