You can refave if you'd like.I'm Sorry.

I took the shot this past Saturday morning.I was stepping out of the building where I work when I saw this reddish tone on the pavement in the courtyard.I was telling a coworker, "Wow,it's beautiful outside".I walked out further into the courtyard and when I saw the sky,I was blown away by it's beauty!I took a few shots,but I liked the angle on this one the best.Thanks for checking it out and have a wonderful day:-)

Dear friends, thank you all for your views, comments and faves!

The tulip originated centuries ago in Persia and Turkey, where it played a significant role in the art and culture of the time. Most likely commenting on the Turkish tradition of wearing tulips in one’s turban, Europeans mistakenly gave tulips their name, which comes from the Persian word meaning turban.

The meaning of tulips is generally perfect love . Like many flowers, different colors of tulips also often carry their own significance. Red tulips are most strongly associated with true love, while purple symbolizes royalty. The meaning of yellow tulips has evolved somewhat, from once representing hopeless love to now being a common expression for cheerful thoughts and sunshine. White tulips are used to claim worthiness or to send a message of forgiveness. Variegated tulips, once among the most popular varieties due to their striking color patterns, represent beautiful eyes.

My sunset photography drought has continued for the past couple of weeks, but at least there was one photogenic sunset.

"All flowers in time bend towards the sun,

I know you say there's no one for you,

But here is one."

🎶🎶🎶

One day it's here and then it's gone

How are you still holding on?

How are you still holding on?

You've felt this way for far too long

Waiting for a change to come

You know you're not the only one

And life passes you by

Don't be wasting your time

On your own

You always try to see yourself

Through the eyes of someone else

Through the eyes of someone else

Too shy to say that you need help

You and everybody else

You and everybody else

Oh, life passes you by

Don't waste your time

On your own

Yeah life passes you by

Don't be wasting your time

All alone

As your heart gets bigger

And you try to figure out

What's it all about

And your skin gets thicker

As you try to figure out

What's it all about

Yeah life passes you by

Don't waste your time

On your own

One day it's here and then it's gone

How are you still holding on?

How are you still holding on?

"Looking close... on Friday!"

Theme: One single leaf

Have a lovely fall weekend! :)

“Looking up, I observed one solitary leaf that remained on a spindly branch of an old oak tree. And as winter’s frigid winds blew against it twisting it this way and that, I thought that it was either committed to holding on as long as it could or it was afraid to let go.”

― C. D. L.

Wishing a Happy Thanksgiving

to those who celebrate today!

Peace and love!
