    It may have been said that she was a fine figure of a lady! Well, she is all that and more. What a beautiful image.

    Your choice to combine the blue pastel colours from the dress with the background and flowers are a feast to watch Marie !
    Great work how it all came together.

    Oh, I DO love this so much! The blues are perfect hues, and I think hydrangeas just exude Victoriana. So appealing!
