I love guardian angels and girl at the Louvre. Guardian angels is one of those happy moments where the juxtaposition of the figures creates a message all its own. And the foggy background makes it perfect. Girl at the Louvre is beautiful in that the young lady appears to be intimidated by the painting. Humility in the presence of fine art. Wonderful work, young lady. Although I liked the PUG image, I much prefer these two. Paul
