Iona


Here is one I did finish although this is not the finished version. Apparently I didn't shoot the final version before I handed it over. This was done as a commission for my friend Amanda to give to her Husband, my friend Bob on the occasion of there 2ND wedding anniversary. It's the bar in which they met. Happy anniversary guys.

Lucky Bob, that Amanda is definitely a keeper.

This is lovely as usual!
I hope you come visit FIT soon!

Munich Newman said...

Yeah, lucky Bob, I agree with Hans.
Steve, I'm off to Hastings for Alex's 18th Birthday on Friday, fancy a swift lunch?

Bob P said...

Agreed. I am very lucky. Steve captured the bar so perfectly, he might as well have been painting my memory of it. I was stunned when i saw it. We'll cherish it forever. Thank you Steve, my friend.

Stellar. Frickin Stellar. The haze in the twilight air. Wow. Nice one.
It's our 20th this year. I think you owe me ten of these.

Nice use of Red, Steve, might want to think about that..

Bob- I delighted that you like it so much, let's grab a pint soon.

Jeff- Good thinking about the red business, still trying to push it though.

Moish- thanks man and maybe so.

Chad- that's what I'm going for.
