So.... yep, I got a 2nd DD.
For a while, I had DD and Yuki. Then I decided I didn't need two girls that were so similar. I got rid of Yuki. But, I still wasn't paying any attention to DD.
So...she went on her way.
But, when one came up at a good price... for some reason, I couldn't resist.
So, we'll see how she does here this time around.
I decided I'll keep the same name for her... (sad, I know, but I'm bad at thinking up names)
So, she's Dainty June.
Gorgeous dress and headband are by Kate (moofala1) -- thanks Kate! We just LOVE all the sets!
the 2nd try with this theme.
I think I did it right now, let me know if it still wrong, I can edit it again, how many times is needed
My original idea was to get something like this when the lights were on at night, but the autofocus works very poorly in the dark. This was the only shot that was focused.
The 2nd early morning line up as annotated intersected by the telephone lines across the courtyard. Took another shot 10 mins later much wider angle with sunrise glow but Mercury eluded me behind a tree! Tomorrow is another day as they say.

"Second Presbyterian Church is one of Chicago's architectural gems. Architect James Renwick designed the Gothic Revival exterior and Howard Van Doren Shaw and Frederic Clay Bartlett redesigned the interior in the Arts and Crafts taste. In addition to the original interior fixtures and murals, memorial windows made by William Morris & Company, Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company, Tiffany Studios, Church Glass & Decorating Company, McCully & Miles, and Louis J. Millet enhance the Church's interior. In 2013, Second Presbyterian Church was designated a National Historic Landmark in recognition of its Arts and Crafts interior."

It is a beautiful, cold, morning in Drumnadrochit with a slight inversion sitting over Loch Ness and frost clinging to the shadows in the glen.
