Lovely as always. I had a close friend who was an artist, an art teacher, and a lover of life. He taught me that "Awareness is the mother of all creativity" You are so incredibly aware of the world around you, Sandy. It speaks volumes about your soul. And your creativity is an inspiration.
oh Sandy those are shots that just touch me --the berries I love to shoot in all seasons and water in all forms esp w/ the reflection You are a true artist. Your teacup below is so pretty and holds similar memories for me.
Hi Sandy, very beautiful indeed. The red of berries has been beautifully enhanced by the greyish background. The picture painted a bright smile across my face. Thanks for lighting up my evening.
Hi Sandy. How are you doing? Every time I see red berries like this I am reminded of my encounter with poison ivy as a boy. The berries were lovely to play with and roll around in my palms, but turned out to be rather nasty. I don't think I will ever trust a smooth little berry again.

ReplyDeleteLove the contrast of the bright red against the branch and the one of the ice - is it ice? - ripples frozen? That's how it looks. Beautiful.
