it seems that i'm attracted to warm peaches and reds this week. part of that could be that i only see the sunset lately as i dash around. and of course i had to throw in the now very dried roses. i took out my 100mm - i haven't played with it in a while and it felt good.
i'm making my way back through 'simple abundance' - there is so much goodness in that book and in light of the situation in haiti, it really hits home with me to be grateful for what i have. i know many people have already blogged about it so, i will not go on about it. but, i send prayers to all that are suffering.
hug someone close to you - human or furbaby. they probably need it as much as you do.
sunset photos are captured perfectly by you....
ReplyDeleteand I just re-read a book and got even more out of it this time than I did first time around....
hugs to you
The sky is so breathtaking. I love the peach color schemed post.
ReplyDeletebeautiful!
ReplyDeletei'm also reading Simple Abundance and Something More AGAIN, lol. i've read them at least 7 times. they've changed my life!
hugs are always good. my son asked me yesterday if adults need as many hugs as children do.
ReplyDeleteyour sunsets are a highlight of my day.thanks char
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photographs Char. Love the take on the roses, so very effective. There's a sadness to them, but in a beautiful way.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've read
ReplyDeletethat book. I'll need to
look it up. These new
images are beautiful! I
especially love the third
image.
The last few months have
made me appreciate the
beauty of friends and my
family more. My heart goes
out to those in Haiti and
to their loved ones.
Gorgeous photos. I really love that third one, the color is astounding. And the roses speak of beauty in transition.
ReplyDeleteHugs to everyone. We all need them.
Quite beautiful indeed.

ReplyDeleteSpeaking of peaches and reds...I just picked up pinks, buttery yellow and rusty red yarns(have the peach at home)to make some crocheted hats for my grandbabies. I'm in the crocheting mode.
ReplyDeleteMy heart goes out to everyone in Haiti too. So sad.
the sunsets have been so brilliant!
ReplyDeletea hug for you too
Char, your photographs are lovely and you are sending them out into the world during a time in need of beauty and peace. The pain and suffering in Haiti has put all of our lives in perspective. I feel so lucky for all that I have in my very full life.
