Wendy, please contact me Peggy Muraco PMuraco1@aol.com I would like to obtain permission to use your fish and coin photo. I would also like to know how I can buy a copy of this from you to frame. This photo means so much to me, because the Lord sent me a fish and a coin to pay my taxes (symbolically speaking) and the only way I can tell the world about this is through the picture of your fish which is fantastic. I have been having to sell my items to render unto Caesar (or otherwise pay my taxes). I want to tell you a wonderful story that I feel needs to be told--something that happened to me yesterday, June 29th. I had been praying my brains out to God really hard, because I knew I could not pay my real estate taxes that would soon be due shortly. I began to wonder if God really had the time to listen to my prayers. I mean, I sometimes felt as if He was saying to me....Peg, come on now there are people in the world with more important issues than you and needing money to pay your taxes! There are people with terminal illnesses and such and you are crabbing about your taxes. Well, I needed the money to pay them I thought. So after quite a few days of intense prayer, I woke up yesterday and heard someone (in my mind) say to me..."Peg, take that tax bill and place it in your purse when you go out today. I said; "Gee God, I don't know what for, because I am not expecting any money from anyone and there is no way that I can pay my taxes. I went about my business and then went to the post office that afternoon. When I got to the post office, I saw a letter in there and recognized the name, but couldn't remember who it was. When I opened up the letter, I read that it was the company who represented my previous employer in my Workers Comp case when I took care of my mom for 6 1/2 yrs. They wanted to settle the case and offered me $3,000.00! When I read that, I cried and knew it was from God. The bill that I placed in my purse in the morning was a reminder from God of our conversation that morning. I am still in awe of how God has worked in my life, but this is not the first time something like this has happened. I just want to thank God publicly for what He has done for me and I know I can do it better through the use of your fish. Matt. 17:24-27 Thank you so much Peggy Muraco

All I can say about this one, is - how Wendyish of you - your cropping and composition move this image to another plane.
