~ Weekend 41 ~ Through the Lens

Through the Lens Weekend 41


'What is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter
 to give it sweetness.' ~ John Steinbeck


Sharing with several blogs this weekend: 





Snow on Cape Ann MA ~ Is it almost Spring? ~ Not to 'rush things' ~ 





Haiku ~ prompt ~ 'lost in the mist'




My 'assistant' on Cape Ann MA ~ perhaps, wondering 'what that gadget is that
I am pointing in her face' ~ always seems wondrous of the gadgets.





Guess 'who came to dine' on Cape Ann MA ~ 





Another wintry scene on Cape Ann MA ~ to paraphrase a great poet,
'if winter is here can Spring be far behind?' Who wrote that?






Watercolor Sketch exploring with whatever I found in the house to sketch. Seems to help keep
my 'hand' in sketching. I basically just sketch with a w/c brush and paints.


We are wishing you the best in each day. xoxox

Your posted comments are gems to us. Thanks.
