Hey Guys, I am glad you guys liked this post. As you can tell I am a big fan of mosaics and relief murals too!
I especially like the one in the swimming pool. Very Googlesque.
These are grand! Your site is so rich. Loved the space mosaic you recently featured as well.
Thanks for paying AQ-V a visit this week. :)
