“Feathers are thought to carry spiritual energy and can serve as reminders that you are not alone, even in challenging times.” This is a slide of two prized feathers I found in my backyard this summer. When I think of the transitions in the feathers that the young birds made as they got older and the molting stages of the adults, these feathers remind me of how we can shed the old and embrace the new to give us that energy to go forward. Happy Sliders Sunday!

This picture may be amazing for some people and may be the opposite for another but the subject of the picture remains the most important: to reinforce it: a child covered with the Iraqi flag in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, a snapshot does not mean more than wait and hope for an Iraqi immigrant in the West, even for another people not inmigrants , may be one day they sat at this place meeting contemplating the past in the present.

قد تكون الصوره للبعض مدهشه وللاخر العكس لكن يبقى موضوع الصوره اهم عامل لتعزيزها. طفل مغطى بالعلم العراقي

امام برج ايفل في باريس. لقطه لا تعني اكثر من الانتظار والامل لمهاجر عراقي في الغرب. وحتى لمن ليس هو من بلادي ولم يكن مهاجرا فلا بد انه جلس يوما ما نفس الجلسه يتأمل الماضي بوجه الحاضر.

My lovely duo of dreamcatchers are authentic North American. I was so lucky to be given these for my birthday on our Flickr meet up in B.C. by dear friends Monique, Coleen, and Charlotte-thank you for this special gift ladies, I treasure these :) x

Authentic, traditional dream catchers are handmade and crafted only from all natural materials, measuring just a few small inches across in size. The hoops are usually constructed of a bent Red Willow branch covered in stretched sinews. Wrapping the frame in leather is another common finishing touch for "real" dream catchers.

Native Americans believe that the night air is filled with dreams, both good and bad.

When hung above the bed in a place where the morning sunlight can hit it, the dream catcher attracts and catches all sorts of dreams and thoughts into its webs. Good dreams pass through and gently slide down the feathers to comfort the sleeper below. Bad dreams, however, are caught up in its protective net and destroyed, burned up in the light of day.

May all your dreams be good ones x

A different take on the ziggurat's at UEA. Using the multi image but walking a step and taking a shot (repeat) the full length of one ziggurat. Layered, reducing opacity of each layer and cropping.
