The sunshine wasn't on these steps in my photo reference. I made it up, which was fun. I'm happy with the way it turned out, because I was a little nervous about doing it. I sort of feel that steps and doorways can have a feeling of 'promise', or at least they do when the sun spills across them. I've been told that a proposal happened on these steps, which to me was all the more reason to create a mood of hope and optimism. I've been happily married for 38 years, so I'm a believer in one story, one love, one dream.
Well constructed Sally. Love the story of the proposal, and your own happy story!
