Gorgeous all -- the sky effects in the last picture are really different -- I don't think I've ever seen a sky quite like that (and as you know, I spend a lot of time looking up!)
ReplyDeleteThe textures in that last shot blew me away. Thanks for this beautiful post.
ReplyDeletebeautiful scenes in all 3! the advice in the first 2 are awfully hard to live. the last one seems 2nd nature. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat uplifting photos and messages, dear friend. I love how the clouds dance in that afternoon sky in the last photo.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you will have a beautiful week ahead, mon amie.

ReplyDeleteSylvia , the second one of the white lotus in the pond, kind of made me think of Marilyn Monroe and her famous photo where her white frock flared around, she trying , to keep it down......
ReplyDeleteIn an ever changing
flowing
fluid life,
she stands
her blonde wisps of hair
reflecting the light,
as she holds
the undulating expanse
of her white frock,
so perfect
on her frame.
And sometimes
we forget
that the world
would not have seen her
had it not been
for the complicated
underwater maze
of
the green room support chorus,
shining flat in the background,
the slimy creatures
in black slithering
amidst branches
and
so much behind-the-scenes networking,
and her powerful admirers
who occasionally
plucked her away
and displayed her on their arm....
Quite true.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the sun setting on an appreciative thought.
The water lily is very pretty, and the quote accompanying it is heartening!
ReplyDeleteLove the way you caught the birds!
ReplyDeleteI love the sky and the birds!
ReplyDeleteAnd the bees are very happy indeed even if the flowers dont look like this any more!

All three beautiful images Sylvia, but the sky in the last shot is like an epic story, the wind up high looks like it can't decide which direction to blow!
ReplyDeleteA romantic sky with beautiful clouds!
ReplyDeleteWonderful set of images dear Sylvia, thanks for sharing!
Léia
