The Arrow of Life

More experiments with lighting and curves... it's an interesting process.  Like everything, the more you learn, the less you know!  I like that.  I like challenges like that.  I like knowing more and more to the point of knowing that I am never going to know enough.
...and this post has done a curveball. 

Oh well.  Life's like that.  I read a most awesome quote recently, author unknown;
"An arrow can only be shot by pulling backward. So when life is dragging you back with difficulties,it means that it is going to launch you into something great. So just focus and keep aiming."

Aim high.
