On Gratefulness

I would like to dedicate this post and its photos to you, all warm hearted friends out there – you stood by me, were with me and my father in your thoughts. Your waves of supporting, positive thinking touched the shores of my heart again and again. Thank you for being there. For being you.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Infinite

Infinite. I believe everyone has his or her thoughts about its meaning. This gallery contains some of my ideas. I think infinite is a beautiful word, and to me it sounds positive and promising. What do you think? Here are some more interpretations – why don’t you join the conversation?

Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Candid Shots

Cee has a wonderful task for us…Candid shots, when people don’t know they are being photographed! My last shot is a double one…That car driver didn’t know I was standing by the road aiming for the rainbow – and I didn’t know I was to end up with him instead…

Ese’s Weekly Shoot & Quote Challenge: Scent

Certain scents bring back old memories like nothing else can do.  Memories from childhood and younger days. Sometimes a scent brings tears to my eyes and other times a smile on my face…For this challenge I chose a quote from the world of animals. Maybe it seems like a joke to some of you, but I have grown up with animals and I just might agree with Mr Stewart.  What do you think?

When a dog is really comfortable, they give off a certain scent and you can smell it on their paws.
