I "cheated" with the colouring on this one. I rendered the star sphere twice, once in blue and then once in red. Then I used the magic of Paint Shop Pro to get exactly the colours I wanted. Turns out those colours are just right for the 4th July – hope everyone out there has a great one!

Today’s Gratitude Item: That my local library had Paul Ekman’s book “Emotions Revealed” available. That and its easy to order the other books he’s written and get them for free. There used to be a $1.00 charge for ordering books through the library, but since our current library is “temporary” whilst they build a new one, they’ve waived those fees to encourage people to keep using the local library. We’ve been waiting 5 years for a new library, and I’m in no hurry to see that project completed (they say it will be ready for business at the start of next year).
