May 27 SP

New Orleans Museum of Art

It was my turn on the volunteer committee to arrange the flowers in the Great Hall at the New Orleans Museum of Art. Because it is our Memorial Day weekend, I chose the flowers of red, white and blue. I am not too crazy about working on a ladder with my head twelve feet from a marble floor. (I uploaded this image 3 times and still get a blur--the original is fine-maybe it will straighten itself out.)

The arrangement is just marvelous.

Super SP and I don't blame you for being apprehensive. You look relaxed in the photo. The finished product is worth the risk. Lovely arrangement.

watch out for the spears behind :-0

Very nice work in both the arrangement and the photograph. What a great thing to do, to give of your time!

I wondered, was someone going to poke you with a spear?

Great SP, Coleen...who's that in the background? ;-)
Neal Nye28-May-2005 02:33
Impressive that you could push the button and then scramble up there with those flowers before the shutter released and still look so calm and graceful.

I started laughing when I first saw your thumbnail. Nice SP! And, the finished arrangements look very good.

Nice SP. Where's the remote?
Karen Leaf28-May-2005 01:28
Good effort on all fronts, Coleen. I can't believe you'd climb that ladder Ack!. It looks a little warm there, care to share?? Your finished project is absolutely stunning. Bravo!
Dan Chusid28-May-2005 01:00
Uh...can you move those over a little more to the left...? No...maybe to the right...no, left....
Guest 27-May-2005 23:50
Looks like you did a nice job :O)
Guest 27-May-2005 22:52
You've done well to compose the picture, get up the ladder and look calm and collected ... nice arrangements! :)
Guest 27-May-2005 22:13
Very nice arrangements Coleen! Quite an effort too.
Nice to see your getting "up" in the world : )
JeremyGood27-May-2005 22:05
Careful up there!
Zak27-May-2005 21:59
beautiful! and the flowers are nice too... ;-)
Tor27-May-2005 21:58
Very nice result. The picture is not blurred. Perhaps you are still a bit shaken from the ladder experience?
Guest 27-May-2005 21:53
I thought you became a flower stand
Robin Reid27-May-2005 21:53
Good for you... and very brave.. I wouldn't climb that latter any more.
By the way, nice legs!

The stairway looks terrific.

Oh & I do know how to spell your name Coleen. I must stop eating my toast & typing at the same time :>(
laine8227-May-2005 21:23
Collen, just looking makes me dizzy so if it's blurred i can't tell. You do a great job of the flowers & decorating theis wonderful place. Nice SP .
Lee Rudd27-May-2005 21:22
the camouflage isnt working very well :) Beautiful display - and you chose lovely colours
Al Varland27-May-2005 21:19
OSHA would make you get a hard hat on..Nonetheless, volunteering is a good thing and the result is exquisite, you should be proud.
Susanne27-May-2005 20:58
Lovely decoration and wonderful colors. It is just a tiny blurry, but looks fine. Great SP COleen. I think I would get dizzy being this high from the ground :)
