Two Lane Photography: Idée fixe
http://twolanephotography.blogspot.com/2011/06/idee-fixe.html
Weddings, Portraiture, Nature, Travel. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. I have this idea for an image. I can see it when I close my eyes.

If I can ever get it right, I can get it out of my head. Right now it's not working . not even close. I think you have a good idea! June 28, 2011 at 11:13 AM. Is this what you are thinking of.
