The background color really tells the story on how dry it is there. Still very nice details on your dragons.

Thank you all. Yes, Sandy, it is plenty dry. Lake Travis looks like a big ditch, appearing to be at least 20' down in most places.

Very nice images, Kenny. I like the perspective/angle of the first one (and that the critter is scratching its neck with one foot).
