Soft hues of blue
Like secret whispers of a creative soul
Just discernible

Hello old friend...at least we meet on the SSS these days.Life has taken us to busy corridors, but my shadows always give me to pause for the weekend...I love the sound of the vale of shadows, so exotic, as your beautiful Australia in summer.

Cool this morning, 40 something, I'd much prefer the 80's, but it is what it is and we've lucked out so far with the extreme weather...keepin' fingers and toes crossed that we'll have a mild winter, though it never fails to flourish and my trusty wool poncho is always at my side this time of year...now I know why old women always wore shawls...cause it was darn warm and cozy!

Off to work...like I ever really stop, but when you love what you do, it's never a chore...it's just a day in the life alive...mmmmm yummy!!!

See ya next time sweet bud, hope all is well with you, enjoy the sun.

Thinking of WARM hugs!

How you take such consistently beautiful images is a beyond me. This one is just wonderful.

Ralph said...

The blend of lighting is so good here. The shadows mute but not the shiny jar on the sill. The sun causes the shade and adds the sheen to the glass that the shadow cannot overpower. Beautiful shade to the eye...

It's lovely in it's simplicity, Gemma.

You Scored as Ruby

Ruby, resembling love, wealth, wisdom and purity. Ruby-types tend to think with their heart and not their heads, sometimes resulting in wild desicions, but constantly following love and romance. Ruby-types also tend to have a fair judgement and sweet and good feelings for many things. <p> <a href="http://www.freewebs.com/angeldust_seeall/GemStone.html"> See All Results/Comment </a> <p>

You Scored as The Ivy

In Celtic astrology, you're Ivy (not everything on the zodiac is a tree). The animal symbol that accompanies this plant is the butterfly. The ancient Druids say Ivy people are good-natured, empathetic, optimistic, and social and may have magnetic personalities. However, Ivies may be prone to indecision, disappointment, restlessness or a fear of offending others.

Tarot Card Identity

You are The Empress Beauty, happiness, pleasure, success, luxury, dissipation. The Empress is associated with Venus, the feminine planet, so it represents, beauty, charm, pleasure, luxury, and delight. You may be good at home decorating, art or anything to do with making things beautiful. The Empress is a creator, be it creation of life, of romance, of art or business. While the Magician is the primal spark, the idea made real, and the High Priestess is the one who gives the idea a form, the Empress is the womb where it gestates and grows till it is ready to be born. This is why her symbol is Venus, goddess of beautiful things as well as love. Even so, the Empress is more Demeter, goddess of abundance, then sensual Venus. She is the giver of Earthly gifts, yet at the same time, she can, in anger withhold, as Demeter did when her daughter, Persephone, was kidnapped. In fury and grief, she kept the Earth barren till her child was returned to her.
