she had braids once before - when she was 8 and going to summer camp and was too young to manage her mane of hair... a little smile wouldn't hurt would it - (i guess she gets tired of having a camera aimed in her direction all the time by me)
“We can learn from nature
the art of praising God
without words…
Go outside…
Stand beside something that is already praising God.
Let the sacredness of that prayer seep into your being.
All that is drawn to God is drawing you with it.”
©Sr. Macrina Wiederkehr
Abide, Keeping Vigil with the Word of God, Liturgical Press
“Prayer is in all things, in all gestures. Prayer, to be fruitful, must come from the heart and must be able to touch the heart of God. See how Jesus taught His disciples to pray. I believe each time we say “Our Father,” God looks at His hands, where He has carved us. (“I have carved you on the palm of my hand.” See Isaiah 49:16) He looks at His hands, and He sees us there. How wonderful the tenderness and love of God!”—Mother Teresa
"Dive deep, O mind, dive deep in the Ocean of God's Beauty: If you can plunge to the uttermost depths, there you can find the gem of Love."—Sri Ramakrishna
“Every blade of grass has its Angel that bends over it, and whispers, "Grow, grow."”- The Talmud
“Even a stone, and more easily a flower or a bird, could show you the way back to God, to the Source, to yourself. When you look at it or hold it & let it be without imposing a word of mental label on it, a sense of awe, of wonder, arises within you. Its essence silently communicates itself to you and reflects your own essence back to you.”©Eckhart Tolle
"We can touch the Kingdom of God in everyday life. There is no need to travel a great distance to touch the Kingdom of God, because it is not located in space or time. The Kingdom of God is in your heart. It is in every cell of your physical body...All you have to do is open your eyes, and the paradise of forms and colors is available to you..."©Thich Nhat Hanh, You are Here
Ybor City was established in the 1880's consisting of mostly immigrants from Cuba, Spain, Italy & more. Many of these migrants worked in cigar factories rolling millions of cigars for decades.
Ybor City is unique.
Tumbled: I forgot how much I love this mechanical pencil - 9mm lead, somewhere in the Bs. When I was younger I used to love obsessively fine line, now I’m the exact opposite; I (often) find obsessive detail tedious.

Anyone else thinking of the Brady Bunch?
(ps I have a nine frame version of this as well... and a twelve...)
This is my daughter with my cousin. I chose b/w -> sepia as my cousin
was wearing dark blue dress which was taking more attention than my
daughter's expression.
The grain is intentional!!
Lastly.. nothing in this photo matters to me more than the
innocent expression!! Can't beat that!!
My cursive handwriting on the left (terrible, yes, I know xD) and some sheet music for a duet I'm doing with my best friend on the right.
I was wondering, do the angles of these two pictures look kinda weird together? I'm not sure. :\
By the way, does anybody want to do a diptych/triptych thing together? Just wondering, I thought it might be cool. If you do, send me a flickrmail. :)
When I asked my 4yr old daughter Amiltha for an expression :-)
Submitted for Active Assignment Weekly: Body Parts Alive
The challenge for this week is to take a photo of a body part or parts. This could lend itself to some artsy stuff which, of course, should be appropriate for all audiences and sensibilities.
