Soaring in the realm of possibilities, they couldn't be undone even by the forces of gravity!
NOTE: Technically this isn't a proper IF entry and is more of a 'what-if?' post...I took some poetic liberty to combine my blogiversary giveaway and season's greetings here. Last month, I completed one year of fairly regular blogging and part of my enthusiasm to continue posting often comes from all the wonderful encouragement and kindness of dear blog visitors, talented artists and friends. I'd like to thank you all for your visits, kind comments and insightful observations. As a little celebration, I'm giving away a set of postcard prints (which includes the current post and this) to three lucky winners. To participate, leave a comment here by 31st December 2009.
Wishing y'all Happy Holidays and a 2010 - full of possibilities :)

You are too magnanimous in spirit, much like your intense paintings, my dear friend.

Indian Navy, now has only one aircraft carrier and to get special guided tours one has to be super important, like the President. I'm considering running for that office next term ;)
