I was doing some gardening today before the rain hits tomorrow. I deadheaded the roses but it seemed a shame to put them in the compost before taking a photo of them. Since they are fading away anyway I decided on a faded vintage edit with a couple of textures (my own).
I used my nifty fifty as a change from all things Lensbaby.
It's funny how you see things differently once you start getting into photography. This little twig somehow caught my eye from across the yard. I liked how the light was hitting the leaves and the almost fiery glow from the fading sunlight behind them.

It's not hard to know what you're thinking
When you look down on me now
Your trance of love is seeking
To turn this world around
But in my state of blind confusion
No God can pull me out
I see your love is willing
To turn me inside out
And then I see you there
The lonely tears I cry
I wish they'd release me
It's in despair that I find faith
Summon the night to bow down to day
When ignorance is bliss
Save me from myself
And then I see You there
With Your arms open wide and You try to embrace me
These lonely tears I cry
They keep me in chains and I wish they'd release me
Cold is the night but
Colder still is the heart made of stone, turned from clay
And if you follow me
You'll see all the black, all the white fade to grey
Fade to grey
Fade to grey
This is the remains of the bank building in ghost town of Rhyolite, Nevada.

Where beauty has no ebb, decay no flood,
But joy is wisdom,
Time an endless song.
I kiss you and the world begins to fade.

My pink hydrangea turning red ....
...but not without shining again in all its glory. The last of the sunlight turned this poppy flower into something beautiful, something unique and unforgettable that evening in June. You will bloom again next year and I will visit you and admire all your beauty to the new you wonder of nature, the poppy flower. Life is so fleeting and we should set out to enjoy every single day and give people a smile, over and over again. It doesn't hurt and doesn't cost us anything!!!
Normality is a paved road, it's easy to walk on - but no flowers grow on it.
- Vincent Van Gogh 1853 – 1890
Every becoming in nature, in man, in love has to wait, be patient, until its time has come to blossom.
- Dietrich Bonhoeffer 1906 – 1945
I've been here a couple of times before but this has been submerged by the tide each time. Taken yesterday (my camera doesnt know what date it is) the first day of British summer time!
This image is inspired by the fact that this year - it´s 40 years since Metallica released "Ride the Lightning" with the song Fade to Black (released on July 27, 1984). It´s a dark song but still a masterpiece!

Life it seems to fade away
Drifting further everyday
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
I need the end to set me free,

Set up and shot this in a bit of a hurry to be able to upload it in time for this week's "Looking close... on Friday!" theme "Fading Beauty in Flora", making use of some withered flowers that fell off one of my Phalaenopsis orchids. I like how it turned out, considering how little time I had to work on it!

I feared people's opinions
Until I learned that people would have opinions about me anyway.

Until I learned to have faith in myself.
I feared pain
Until I learned that it's necessary for growth
I feared the truth
Until I saw the ugliness in lies.
I feared life
Until I experienced its beauty .
I feared death
Until I realized that it's not an end, but a beginning.
I feared my destiny,
Until I realized that I had the power to change my life.
I feared hate
Until I saw that it was nothing more than ignorance.
I feared love
Until it touched my heart, making the darkness fade into endless sunny days.
Until I learned how to laugh at myself.
I feared growing old
Until I realized that I gained wisdom every day.
I feared the future
Until I realized that Life just kept getting better.
I feared the past
Until I realized that It could no longer hurt me.
I feared the dark
Until I saw the beauty of the starlight.
I feared the light
Until I learned that the Truth would give me Strength.
I feared change,
Until I saw that even the most beautiful butterfly had to undergo a Metamorphosis before it could fly.
