As I sat in my garden enjoying a nice cup of tea I liked how the late afternoon light was illuminating the grass.

 

Thanks for all the lovely comments and favs on yesterday's busy bee :)

Madagascar periwinkle, old maid, pink periwinkle, rose periwinkle.

For "Looking close... on Friday!" the theme: "Bokeh Only".

 

I had fun playing with this theme... trying to make a photo of my little elephant made of blue and white beads standing on shiny green paper, both in bokeh.

This is the result, not completely satisfied though.

I wish I had had a Helios lens for this challenge (really love that bokeh, it gives), but I haven't... I guess that's life, isn't it?......dealing with what you got and still be happy and keep having dreams ;-))

 

Have a lovely start of your weekend and a very happy Friday ^_^

La semplicità è mettersi nudi davanti agli altri.

E noi abbiamo tanta difficoltà ad essere veri con gli altri.

Abbiamo timore di essere fraintesi, di apparire fragili,

di finire alla mercè di chi ci sta di fronte.

Non ci esponiamo mai.

Perché ci manca la forza di essere uomini,

quella che ci fa accettare i nostri limiti,

che ce li fa comprendere, dandogli senso e trasformandoli in energia, in forza appunto.

Io amo la semplicità che si accompagna con l'umiltà.

Mi piacciono i barboni.

Mi piace la gente che sa ascoltare il vento sulla propria pelle,

sentire gli odori delle cose,

catturarne l'anima.

Quelli che hanno la carne a contatto con la carne del mondo.

Perché lì c'è verità, lì c'è dolcezza, lì c'è sensibilità, lì c'è ancora amore.

(Alda Merini)

 

.. Oh turn around and I'll be there

There's a scar right through my heart but I'll bear it again

Oh I thought we were the human race

But we were just another borderline case

And the stars reach down and tell us there's always one escape..

Bokeh in winter light.

 

I found this haiku by Xenia Tran to go along with this image:

"quick to slip

in and out of every dream

winter sun"

   

(Kahlil Gibran)

 

.. Well, I see trees of green and red roses too

I'll watch them bloom for me and you

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world

Well, I see skies of blue, and I see clouds of white

And the brightness of day, I like the dark

And I think to myself

What a wonderful world..

Can you believe this zinnia is still around?? Took this shot two days ago :-))

Sometimes there is only bokeh and no subject. I keep these odd findings in a special folder. Today's theme for the group Looking close on Friday inspired me to share.

... and than my camera is broken

Sono in un periodo fotografico compulsivo. Scatto ovunque e a qualunque cosa, racimolo decine di foto e ogni tanto qualcosa di buono salta fuori.... Questo è un piccolo cespuglietto di fianco a casa, passando di lì mi è scappata una foto :D

 

and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch :-)
