Your posted comments are a delight to us. thanks! ~ ^_^
The flow and delicate lines of your sketches and paintings come alive on the page.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos - as per usual - but the first one is especially nice. I like the layers of cloud and color and then the long line of light stretching up. Very special! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletelove your Asian style brush paintings-really lovely Carol. Your photos and poetry always show us a beautiful world-and that's exactly what we need to remember.
ReplyDeleteJust wondering-why are the llamas/alpacas wearing harnesses around their faces?
These make me take a deep breath. I especially love the wagon wheel shot.
ReplyDeleteYou live in a beautiful part of the world; someday I wish I can see it.
ReplyDeleteWorth a Thousand Words

ReplyDeleteI consider my weekly visits to Cape Ann something of a holiday! ... but I missed a pose or two of Zoe!!! Mine you, those cute critters you found make good subs. Hope this week brings some light and love your way. YAM xx
I love your Asian style brush paintings. They are getting better and better in practice. They match your haiku style of poetry perfectly. I look forward to seeing them weekly...even the practice pages. We all have them. Dr Seuss was so wise. His delivery so gentle. I hope you got to see the Super Moon. I saw a photo on FB taken in Cape Ann. It was outstanding. Give the little Muse a pat for me.
ReplyDeleteFabulous skies! Love your beautiful black swan....and Haiku + sky background. Thank you Carol....
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful week!

Carol, give yourself some credit!! Your "progress" looks pretty darn good to me on that little bird let alone all the other beauty you captured!!...:)JP

ReplyDeleteROG, ABCW
Beautiful pictures. The horse is adorable wearing horse blanket :-) Love your haiku - we can always find beauty even when things are ugly.
ReplyDeleteWonderful images.
ReplyDeleteLlamas are such peculiar looking creatures, I think it is because they look familiar and yet on closer inspection they aren't. Lovely sunset.
ReplyDeleteSomeone told me to calm down an hour ago, but only fueled my irritation. Your haiku succeeded. Taking deep breaths now. Thanks, Carol. :-)

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely sky, Carol.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love the quote you opened with. Beautiful images all around!
ReplyDeleteHello dear Carol, how I love my Friday stroll through your world... our evening skies here have been the most beautiful I can ever remember, similar to your haiku sky. I so love seeing your ink washes in process. Thank you for these gifts of seeing beauty wherever you look. You and Zoe have a wonderful weekend and I'll be thinking of Dr. Seuss because of you. XOXO
