Instead of an Easter egg, I got him some googly eyes. I think he was surprised. It's kind of hard to tell now...
Posting to say present and to let you all know that all is well with me. Sorry for going offline for so long without say a word but I really needed this long break. Also, from now on, I am gonna post a lot less and spend much less time on Flickr mostly because before the break I was spending 3-4 hours a day trying to give feedback to everyone and that was wearing me down. I am planning on posting once or twice a month and give as much feedback as humanly possible. I hope I won't forget anyone.
Cheers everyone.

Number 15 for 52 in 2018: Gift
This terrific painting is by Flickr friend Carlene Byland, and was a gift to me from her.
I finally found the right frame for it in my stash of such things!

Not as it is, but in my dreams! This was a photo I took last fall. Since I'm tired of waiting for spring, I turned fall into spring. I have no idea what the pink ground color is, but it's impressive, don't you think?
I found this 31 years old Brand New 2.8F ( haven't been used and kept in original box ) at Beijing, the camera was made in 1979 according to the serial number. The lens is Xenota 80mm f/2.8. This picture was taken by another classic, the 2.8D which was made between 1955 to 1956, the lens is Xenota 80mm f2.8 also.
The present sanctuary was dedicated in 1887 after being located in four other locations around downtown Macon. The Sanctuary contains many interested Christian symbols to enhance our worship. Among them: the presence of the trefoil (a symbol of the Trinity); the presence of the quatrefoil (a traditional Christian symbol of 4 overlapping circles); a beautiful stained-glass rose window; and 12 beautiful stained glass windows depicting the life of Jesus. Also of architectural note, the inside of the sanctuary roof is shaped like an upside-down ship’s hull, using the traditional Christian symbol of a boat to reflect that safety and sanctuary can be found in this holy space.
Beneath the sanctuary is the Great Room, a smaller gathering place and home to the Faithful Followers Sunday School Department. It was christened “The Great Room” in 2004, after a renovation, in appreciation of “The Greatest Generation,” the older members of FBCX who given their time, resources, and talents through the years to make First Baptist a place of worship, discipleship, missions and fellowship.

My "Past, Present, Future." I chose this Hosta Lily because it represents to me all that is available to create art on my own property. Because of the severe chronic illness I have, there are only a few days when I have to energy to go out beyond my home. But there is so much here, and it has been very rewarding. The past is dark (dying flowers), the future hazy (tight buds), but today is bright and open. The base image is from Unsplash, I used a Bubble brush, and several textures from 2 Lil Owls.
I present to you this geometric rope configuration, found on the bottom of an upturned boat. I suspect that it is really a message: a secret code used by those proficient in the Art of Boats, who enjoy the befuddlement of the Landlubber. I don’t mind about that though, as I exist in a permanent state of bewilderment; so let the sailors have their fun I say.
I will not, however, speculate on the meaning of said message; you, of course, may do so.

The present ruins date from the 13th to the 16th centuries, though built on the site of an early medieval fortification. Founded in the 13th century, Urquhart played a
role in the Wars of Scottish Independence in the 14th century. It was subsequently held as a royal castle, and was raided on several occasions by the MacDonald Earls
of Ross. The castle was granted to the Clan Grant in 1509, though conflict with the MacDonalds continued. Despite a series of further raids the castle was
strengthened, only to be largely abandoned by the middle of the 17th century. Urquhart was partially destroyed in 1692 to prevent its use by Jacobite forces, and
subsequently decayed. In the 20th century it was placed in state care and opened to the public: it is now one of the most-visited castles in Scotland.

Autumn has nearly ended.
You now approach the winter of your life,
when leaves will have fallen from the trees and
and all will be buried under the cold snow.
Think back to warm summer days. Celebrate its colours.
Allow your thoughts to flow.
Share with me the evolution of Spring when you helped me to grow.
Life is a cycle and whilst the seasons end, life goes on
