This is part and parcel of my journey through life, as seen through my eyes, heart and mind. Scary I know!!- Hopefully this Blog will allow us to Learn & LAUGH, as well as to THINK and QUESTION: Who we are, Where we are heading and Who we are becoming- Join in on my journey?....... Or Not!
GOD BLESS AMERICA; AMERICA, BLESS GOD!
Lots of nice photos here John! I can tell by the photos you are taking that you are really loving photography! you are also getting pretty darn good at it and are demonstrating an awesome eye...
Terrific collection of shadow shots, John! Love the rake and that shadowy path looks like the perfect place to walk and enjoy the beauty! Have a wonderful weekend and a very Happy Easter!
Who would've thought that an implement of work would actually be an tool for the artist akin to a brush and easel? Not I! Your neck of the woods is quiet and peaceful, a palace of nature in which to rest and relax...Happy Easter!

Hugs from SC to You and Yours!

nana_ang_poppaphil- Thanks so much! I'm kinda just learning on that part- and I do appreciate the positive feedback!
Intriguing perspectives of the rake! But I am totally enchanted with the face in the ivy! I am sure I see the profile of a long-nosed dog with a chunky collar round his neck! And what a beautiful shadowy walking track!

Whoever would have thought that a common rake would make such an extraordinary shadow? Stupendous!

ReplyDeleteHappy Easter Sunday, John. He is Risen!
ReplyDeleteLove the shadows - especially the rake. :)
I love the texture behind the rake
ReplyDeleteand the way you brought up the color
and that road is lovely
That last one looks like it should be on the wall as a painting :)
ReplyDeleteHello John,
ReplyDeleteWow... sunny days there?
Wish the sun visit Sweden soon.
Have a great day.
