enormously successful 
without encountering and 
overcoming a number 
of extremely challenging 
problems. "

 and your happiness,
only illusion

A wise quote by Mr. James. That last shot is incredible!

Ida said...

I love the view in that first shot. That is a lovely flower too.
Odd to see the doors standing up against the fence, perhaps they were waiting to be painted.
Gorgeous sky in the last shot.
