  • Oh Lois, this is GOOOOOOORGEOUS!! I must go and sit on that little bench and take in this beautiful scene. Ahhh yes, I can hear the birds singing and feel the sun warm on my face.

  • Goodness gracious, Lois! We hear all too often when photographs look like paintings... well, this looks like it could have been painted by one of the European masters. This is just so visually stunning! The lighting is perfect for this capture. I think this is your absolute best photograph to date. I cannot wait to see more images from this session and to see this one gracing the homepage of Webshots as a feature. Clark

  • Lois, like some others have already commented... this really does look like a painting! Beautiful photo, a true work of art! I wanted to let you know that if it weren't for you and the message you left under one of my photos in my "Springtime around SLO County' album, I would've missed an opportunity to di the Happy Dance! I had no idea that the photo had been featured in Spring Scenics and you were the only one to bring it to my attention. So a big, big THANK YOU to you! ~ Jess

What a gorgeous stunning photo..beautiful colors..and bursting with life.. Everything here is turning brown and dieing--we haven't had any decent rain in months..I'm watering every night trying to save some new plants and bulbs..

  • I watched this album in a slideshow and just melted. Thank you so much for creating this beauty and letting all of your fans share it with you...I felt like I had stepped back in time, to a garden in a painting. My clothes had all changed and we all were wandering around in Victorian garb, chatting happily. I do hope the entrance to Heaven is decorated like your pictures.

  • Lois, this is such a stunning capture (loved it as one of your CC entries and love it as the entrance to this album)! Do you go there often during the summers months, you must have to fight the crowds. ~Deb & Rick~
