The Flickr Lounge-Playing With The Light
I was drinking a glass of Ozonated Water and the sun was setting and hit it and this is what I got. I thought it was so pretty.
When we read a story, we inhabit it.
The covers of the book are like a roof and four walls.
What is to happen next will take place within the four walls of the story.
And this is possible because the story's voice makes everything its own.

I love these pretty porcelain cat figurines. It's been a while since I photographed them!
Everything that I came up for this theme... xD
This is the last photo for this photo challenge. Another year full of photos... :)
To be honest, this time I had major difficulties to be creative. Maybe because this year was so difficult... I missed my creativity almost during the whole project. Most photos were taken in a hurry and I had hard times to come up with good ideas. When I look back at all the photos, I do not feel satisfied. They are ok, but I know that I can do much, much better.
Maybe it's time for me to take a little break from shooting or maybe just to concentrate more on taking pictures of what I think is interesting and not to fulfil another theme...
Although I did enjoy the whole experience of taking part in a project with other wonderful and creative people from all over the world! Every time when I looked at the images of other project members I was amazed by how different but also creative and beautiful all the results looked like. It was a joy to do this project with all of you! We all can be proud of our accomplishments!
I wish you all a happy, healthy and successful new year... with many, many beautiful photos! Cheers!
Sliders Sunday- HSS!!!
Tonight we begin the Festival of Lights aka Chanukkah. We will be lighting our lovely Branch Menorah and celebrating with Baked Latkes and Cabbage Rolls, Baked Chicken Wings, Apple Sauce & Sour Cream and a little glass of Raspberry Wine...sounds good eh?
As evidenced by the blue and pink hats here. Yeah, anyway, they started out blue and pink. Got carried away in Lightroom. I hope your spring arrival has been better than ours.
It was a busy day in St. Thomas, today. It was the first day of the Great Lakes International Air Show, so aircraft were flying overhead all day. Then I set up the bistro table on the deck, and set up my camera with the big gun, in the house to shoot whatever came my way. What came was Blue Jays, Cardinals, Orioles (all in their baseball finery) and a host of squirrels which came in three colourings/shades. There was grey, black, and blacker. So, theoretically, 3 Shades Of Grey, I guess.
Today is my Christmas day ... a very special day ...one of my favorite holidays.
We are celebrating Christmas for three consecutive days, beginning with Christmas Day. The Serbian Orthodox Church uses the traditional Julian Calendar, as per which Christmas Day (December 25) falls currently on January 7 of the Gregorian Calendar.
During this festive time, one is to greet another person with " Christ is Born " which should be responded to with "Truly He is Born"
P.S: Haven't I told you I love holidays !!! :)

Day 90. Wow.. Crazy stuff!
I thought I'd do something simple this morning, to make up for yesterday. I also wanted to inject some colour back into my stream, as I hate seeing several black & whites i n a row, however much I like them. So here's some OJ ;)
Today is gonna be a long day, as ever. I hate Mondays. But oh well, I'll keep smiling :) Not long to got now.
Also, I would like to know what you guys would like to see from me? Feel like you're not all as interested anymore, so any ideas of what you'd like? I can't promise anything but... yer :)
All references to Christmas aside, we experienced a very bad high wind storm last night. In addition to half my roof cap shingles blowing off, the power in much of the province of New Brunswick also went out. Fortunately it was relatively warm (warm enough to melt about 8-12 inches of snow-gone) but this morning, I had to fire up our industrial strength wood stove in the basement. On the downside (isn't there always one of those) we have had no water since we are on a well, and in order for the well to work, one needs electricity, or hydro, as we refer to it in Canada. Great term-hydro. It actually means water, and when we first came to Canada, I thought, why do they call electricity water? I'll let you figure it out. lol Power's now been out 18hrs. So, our son is bringing his generator over to see if we can salvage the food from our fridge and freezer-filled with food for the upcoming festivities. Life in New Brunswick-it's just...different.
The Flickr Lounge-Plastic
The little flowers in the jars are made of plastic. I treated them with UV spray so they will last in the hot sun.
Which came first, the rabbit or the egg?
Why did the chicken cross the road?
Why not put your egg in one basket?
These burning questions, and others like them, have been pondered since the beginning of time. The chicken in this photo was my mom's. She kept candy in it when I was a young'n.
We are passionate about bringing a relaxed approach while creating beautiful, natural and vibrant images.

momo is peach. this small peach inviting me to the dream of poet utopia...
We are all broken in some way, shape or form. Sometimes, it's the ravages of life. Sometimes, it's the consequence of our own stupidity, or hubris. Whatever the cause, it helps in relationships to know, that everyone is dealing with something. This vase was featured in previous black eyed Susan photos. The other evening, I set up a shot for the birds and squirrels using Jenga blocks and peanuts. Something knocked over the entire table, and this vase, which had been on the deck. lol The colours are from three cleaning micro-cloths I use for cleaning the car.
