Welcome to DGrin! :wave

I have always admired what an exerienced brick mason can do with stone. Hard work, but true artwork. Stonework is coming back big time around here for the fancier new homes.

I like the treatment you gave this shot. Have any other angles or interpretations of it?

One of my top 10 all time favorite novels: The Pillars Of The Earth (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0451166892/sr=1-1/qid=1137471483/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-3981511-9965564?%5Fencoding=UTF8) By Ken Follett. Amazing story, centered around the building of a cathedral in 12th Century England. You'll learn a lot about stone work.

:wave welcome to Dgrin, and nice first post!

That's a GREAT novel Andy. I must have read that thing 15 times. I'll never look at a cathedral the same way again.
