Jeans in Ray's Style

"Honour your favourite pbase family member by doing an image in their style or dedicating an image to someone who inspires you."


Wow!
I know that I caused quite the stir in the FORUM regarding this challenge.
I thank all of you who joined in on the FUN.
I love when I get the chance to dedicate an image
to one of my pbase posse.
And, it was hard to pick for today.
But, Ray said it perfectly in the thread,
"I will do a photo in the style of one of my favourite photographers. The day in question will determine my style.
I don't think anyone need be offended!"

SO, I HONOR RAY today.
Seems a bit full circle for me.
My first banter with Ray was me worrying over offending him on one of his SPs.
The comments after mine on that SP addressed my comment.
His current faithful followers were not pleased with me.
I worried.
But, Ray set my mind at ease and assured me that it was "all good".

I loved his November 17th image.
This is my humble attempt to honor that image and the gent.
Thank you, Ray.
