Bottled Lilac Petals

BEST VIEWED IN LARGE! 
I love to think and play outside the box.  Here I filled the syrup jar with fresh lilac petals added pink silk ribbons on the handle and took a shot of it.  In Photoshop CS5 I applied a texture giving it a dreamy look.  Read more about it ..... or can be purchased as a card, gallery print etc on my Red Bubble Site:  http://www.redbubble.com/people/sandrafoster/works/8964515-bottled-lilac-petals?c=127089-still-life-style&frame_color=black&frame_style=box20&matte_color=off_white&p=framed-print&size=small

Shack on the corner by Sandra Foster ©

Every time I drove past this shack in a wheat field I thought it would make a nice picture.  I added a texture (with thanks) from LenaBem-Ana.  Shot taken after sundown; hence the darkness.  Can be purchased on my Red Bubble Site as a card, poster, gallery canvas etc: http://www.redbubble.com/people/sandrafoster/works/8441825-shack-on-the-corner-now-grungy?c=121712-landscapes
