Speaking of friends, this perfect pink pansy is dedicated to my friend Cat (My Imaginary World) for the truly amazing testimonial she wrote for me. Cat's creative work is really beyond compare: her emotional, alluring & captivating self-portraits are some of the best you'll find on Flickr. And I'm lucky to her found her stream. You should too.
