That  photo for the statue of Queen Meresankh III [right ] and her mother Hetepheres II [left] .
I don't like the dullness of the photo ,It is very pale ,so again I changed the background and adjust the picture that is the way .Just read more.

As I was preparing for the mother's day I found that picture .I fixed it and I felt it is nice for the mother's day as a mother and daughter true picture and story ,so I used it in designing my card .
I fixed it with photo-shop [you can fined that in Arts Of Photos] ,then  I designed the card  with illustrator
