Thanks, Rick. I hesitated posting this because I felt it was over the top. Wifey encouraged me and so I did. Glad you liked it. How? Combination of two images I took, 1 of a powerful looking cloud scape and 2 of the main subject. What? We passed through a town a while back when attending a camera show and this was one of the fascinating buildings of that city. Wish I'd had more exploration time and that the weather had been better.  I took the image while waiting at a red light [darn thing turned green too quickly]. Weather was super cloudy, so the image wasn't good but I felt good enough to have fun with. Personally I've always felt photography should be more about having fun than dotting all those i's and crossing t's. Too old with little time left to waste, I suppose. lol

Who? I really do not know who this guy is, but decided to call him the Guardian. Heck, his real name might actually be Fred or Jaun.  He's really not all that large in life and I had to use the full zoom. Where? In Grapevine Texas [I think that was the name] where the camera show was held.

Thanks again Rick and I'm proud you liked the image. I have a ton more where I used different sky images but the wife picked this one as her favorite so I just went with it. Happy wife, happy life. But she's a keeper.
