    What is life? An illusion, a shadow, a story,
    And the greatest good is little enough:
    for all life is a dream, and dreams themselves are only dreams.

  • Beautiful.

  • oooooh et aaaaaaaah. beautiful shot, Madame, both photo and quote. dreams. sigh…

  • Waking up is hard to do.

  • What is up with the sky in this one?  A million birds?

  • Lovely quote.

  • This is breathtaking. Wonderful and wonderful!!!

  • Your photographs!!!  They take me to another world, or another sensibility of this one.  And your quotes, ah, they are always so perfect with your images.

  • your images keep getting better and better

  • Cool effect! Is that done digitally or in the darkroom?

  • As you know, dreams are a favorite thing of mine.   I have them all the time, awake and asleep, good and bad, believeable and not.  Last night I drempt of your aunt Barbara and of Wendy.    And yesterday I dreamed up another bit of verse to put at the Beacon.

    Dreams clear the mind for fresh thought.:)

  • I love the effect you chose for this! It is wonderful.

  • I love that building, and you have captured it so very well.  What a beautiful photograph!  I love the composition, angle and the softness of it.  Great work!  :) ~

  • :wave:

    Very nice blog.  Thanks for stopping by.  Letting things go is hard, but at least in trying we begin the process of making it habit.

  • well, the swans were taken from a photograph my dad took in the 1960′s in vienna, looking down, from a bridge and you couldn’t see the swan’s heads from that view. I photoshopped the image into a photo I took in a museum hallway, in Peru.

  • My first impression upon seeing this pic was of a building with arms outstreched, kinda like those statues of Jesus or Mary or something…

  • Is that a hugh high rise apartment complex?

  • i love that shot… somehow the building looks superimposed on the sky.  displaced.

  • nice gauzy tone…and angles, always angles…and height…me like.

  • Thanks for your kind words…..:love:

  • (((Hug)))
    hey molly! i have missed you! i thought of you when i was in ohio….i went to something called “vintage ohio” and it was the annual festival of ohio wines, and all (or at least a LOT of) ohio wineries were there….and you paid like $15.oo and you were entitled to taste all the wine you could possibly want to try..(you had a card with 100 squares..and they marked one square each time you had a sample)
    anyways, i had some wonderful red wines that day, and i thought it would have been something you’d have enjoyed!

  • :heartbeat::heartbeat::heartbeat::heartbeat::heartbeat:

    I missed your pictures.

    lisa

  • what can i say? I love it, as I do all of the images you post.:heartbeat:

  • I really like your pics and especially the IcePiks. Reminds me of when I was young living in Maine and scratching pictures in the ice.

  • :yes: As always just what i needed to hear.

    :heartbeat::love::sunny: Mara
