The Almond Croissant Diaries: Mayhem!

§ February 5th, 2010

036/365 So it seems I have swapped one house of mayhem for another! Mind you, its mayhem in a good way! The first caused by having lots of kids climb all over you, the second caused by big dogs jumping up at you, all wanting attention!

The image I had in my mind proved to be harder to create than I amagined. It took hours of faffing about in Photoshop to create those wings! You can see the original by rolling your mouse over the "original" link above the photo.

This was taken at sunset in Cratloe Woods - big thanks to Catriona for modelling.
