Tackle It Tuesday and Tones on Tuesday

Rockport Sunflowers



Welcome to our blog where we view life from the eyes of an artist's soul and explore how creativity enhances the inner spirit.


Today being Tuesday's post we are exploring poetry, more specifically, Japanese haiku and photography and its creative elements such as altering a photo. There is beauty here on the two blogs we are linked with, poetic and visual beauty. Being able to appreciate beauty is a characteristic of the inner spirit.
The word prompt for Tackle It Tuesday was 'sunflowers' and my photo is altered from color to black and white for Tones for Tuesday is below to enjoy.

haiku

sunflowers live name
pointing toward sun like plants
ever giving light.
-o-

from a little seed
sunflowers grow tall, giving
its beauty to all.
-o-

my friend the flowers
delight in sunflowers, sweet
faces of light shine.

Fishing Boats of Cape Ann ~ last of a very large fleet.



The fishing fleet is struggling, as most fishermen are, to survive. Over the years what seemed like a never ending supply of fish in the ocean are severely depleted. As change comes to all, Cape Ann is hoping to hold on to a tradition of the 'Fishermen of Gloucester.'

Hope you enjoyed the haiku and the very different photographs here. Enjoy the blogs we are linked to today.

Hugs and namaste,
