Click the picture to go to the APOD site and read the description as well as click on the picture there a couple times to explore in detail. I'd be quite happy to have painted this one. It has some of my favorite colors - Alizarin Crimson and Phthalocyanine Blue among them.

  2. Carol, Thank you for the compliment ! :)

    Well, we pretty much just relax and have a good meal or two for these kinds of holidays, but yes, I enjoyed it, relaxed, got things done and had some great food. Can't beat that in my book !
