I love it, Pops! So clever and vivid! Wonderful. I never "wood" have thought of this. ~Lydia

Thanks all.

Now that you mention it Bob the only thing I see is that larger gap between Indigo and Violet. The matches were hot glued to a piece of wood to hold them in place. So it's not so easy to move them. But the background is black and that makes it easy to move them in PS - fixed.

One just cannot escape from that I___ place.... first vases now .....??? what will be next???

For decades they have been known as 'red heads'.... somehow I don't think yella heads, orange heads... etc has the same 'ring' to it?

Pops.... they are not exactly perfect.... I have just one 'nit' to pick???...

The space between them is not exactly even? The purple one doesn't seem to be all that fussed about gettin in line.... or perhaps it fancies NOT, the dark blue one?

So, being as how you are the HOST, and should set an example... then I feel you should do it all over again and 'GET IT RIGHT"... OK?

Regards Melbob... ;-)

Pops, this is very impressive. And thanks for the tip on how you produced the colours - I have not tried that idea. Regards Nico

Well, you did a masterful job of imagining and producing your idea! I'll have to try this sometime. :-) CJ

Thanks CJ. I found them in photoshop *wink* *wink* They're actually all white. It's amazing what you can do with the channel mixer.

Really nice Pops - Love the lighting and composition! I've never seen these differently colored matches - where did you find them? CJ
