Closely

A  L  O  H  A !
Nice Spot for a Drink!

A photograph can be 
an instant of life captured 
for eternity that will never 
cease looking back at you.
Brigitte Bardot









Sometimes the darkness 
knows what I feel

Anything looked at closely 
becomes wonderful.

Gorgeous textural images Cloudia.. Bridget Bardot is sooo right, there are many photos of me around that I wish weren't captured for that minute 😁

Peabea Scribbles said...

Really like the quotes. The darkness one, so true at times because if alone seems I do end up feeling the aloneness even though knowing I am not. And for photography, have always and always loved the photo and what I sometime see through photography that my eye did not.

Have a great week.

It certainly does look like a good spot for drink! Belated Happy T Day! Chrisx

Great photo quote. I would never would have guessed Bardo said it! I like it because I am a scrap booker, and I look at my scrapbooks all the time. Happy belated T Day!

Lisca said...

(I would love to have a drink in that spot on Hawaii)
Happy belated T-Day,
Hugs,

Who would have thought a pesky squirrel could have sidelined me for over three days. You might have read that it ate through my phone/internet line and sidelined ME. Otherwise I would have been here sooner.

I'm very sorry I'm late visiting. I got back online just in time to learn there was going to be a hard freeze tonight. I spent the entire day cutting back my herbs and getting the ones I could lift into the house. The others I covered tonight with sheets. I doubt you will ever have a freeze problem in Hawaii.

Your photos and quotes always make me smile. I would LOVE to join your for a drink in that beautiful area. Thanks so much for joining us again at T this week. I always LOVE it when you do.

I used to love black and white photography when I did the developing and printing myself. Now that digital is so easy I don't do it any more. - Margy
