More snow here today, a lot of snow the banks are mountains.

I didn't go out in it, albeit I LOVE to, I was too busy re-created a flickr group a very trolled group.

Suffice it to say after all that " white" I was in the mood for a wee bit of colour.

There are some real morons walking the halls of flickr, yes I'm black and white about that.

You have to look with the heart ..

The rain has stopped still the sun is covered, I needed an archive to remind me the sun does & will eventually shine down on us once again..

Everything needs tending, from garden (if one would call it that) to roof to the belly of the basement, I'm tired of the sand castles, it feels like that, fix it so a wave can come and sweep it away from me...



"People where you live," the little prince said, "grow five thousand roses in one garden... yet they don't find what they're looking for...
"They don't find it," I answered.

"And yet what they're looking for could be found in a single rose, or a little water..."

"Of course," I answered.
And the little prince added, "But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart." "

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (The Little Prince)

Seeing

My little garden buddy, he sees and goes through it all winter spring summer and fall... and has probably been the ladder for a Squirrel or two \\ ;D I 'm wishing you a very happy Friday & a terrific week-end ! And quotes... b/c I like them I find them humorous b/c they are, besides a few other things, I live for funny.

"I think she's having hysterics. Maybe you should slap her." — Stephenie Meyer (New Moon)

as I travel through early morning upon first waking this little light playing on the ceiling the movement caught my eye; as I'm rather bewitched by light & shadow play..

Rose hips and vase

My newest challenge is shooting myself.... I find it difficult, ok more then difficult thus perfect to proceed for what is life worth if not a challenge at times. First the part on how to t focus on something that's just not yet there and how to make sense of it all as an amateur.

Sure it's easy enough to get myself as the dof.. so I went for this state of semi undress it was my best option to challenge my propriety, for I can be shy .... so on with the challenge now how do I focus on myself when I am not there (not a problem when I have cam in hand shooting in the bath mirror you understand) .. perhaps I over think it.

Or maybe not, either way I have come to realize that most self images I've seen in  the

land of self are most likely done by others, I mean those amateurs, in their

overly professional poses and photos... the pieces just do not fit.  "A lie will travel halfway round the planet,

whilst the truth is still putting on it's shoes" I believe Mark Twain said that, but no doubt there is someone somewhere that will happily covet it as their own...

Worked with Graphic converter for a ghostly mirror image and less of me to see, see '~]) 

this is original but for colour changed to sepia..
