The sun breaks over Table Cliff Plateau above Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah. HDR processed with Lightroom, Photoshop and Topaz filters.
Tone your wants and tastes low down enough, and make much of negatives, and of mere daylight and the skies.

I collected about two dozen beautiful and varied leaves last night from the trees at Costco. My husband loaded our groceries while I wandered the parking lot searching for treasures. When we got home, I carefully laid the wet leaves on towels and put heavy pans over them to keep them from curling up and getting crunchy. I had dreams all night about what I could create with them.
That is my motto in life. Simplify. When things get stressful that is what I do. Here's to keeping it simple.

A solitary tree by the roadside in the Weser Uplands. The fog simplifies the background.
Just a block from my home and down a small alley there is this lovely site. Looks a bit rough, doesn't it. A town of around 10,000 people. One has to be careful.

MY PRAVER TO MY FATHER IN HEAVEN.
Dear Lord, don't let us miss you this Christmas season. Help us to simplify our activities and traditions, so we can focus our celebrations on your birth. Thank you for being the Prince of Peace, and I ask you for that supernatural peace to reign in our hearts. Thank you for the simple but life-changing message of your love for us. In Jesus Name. Amen.

Huanglong (simplified Chinese: 黄龙; traditional Chinese: 黃龍; pinyin: Huánglóng; lit. 'yellow dragon') is a scenic and historic interest area in the northwest part of Sichuan, China. It is located in the southern part of the Minshan mountain range, 370 kilometres (230 mi) north-northwest of the capital Chengdu.[1] This area is known for its colorful travertine pools formed by calcite deposits, especially in Huanglonggou (Yellow Dragon Gully), as well as diverse forest ecosystems, snow-capped peaks, waterfalls and hot springs. Huanglong is also home to many endangered species including the giant panda and the Sichuan golden snub-nosed monkey.[1] In addition, a large population of the endemic orchid species Cypripedium plectrochilum was discovered at the site.[2] Huanglong was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1992 because of its outstanding travertine formations, waterfalls and limestone formations as well as its travertine terraces and lakes rating among the three most outstanding examples in the world.[1][3] Wikipedia

This, too, is taken in the gardens near the rose garden at Point Defiance Park, located in Tacoma, Washington. I think I'm having a difficult time deciding which I like more, roses or dahlias! They're both so beautiful! Hope you all enjoy!
