Good Morning Anita,
What lovely rose pictures on here today. I especially like those blush Pink roses. They look perfect for Spring.

Your words "keep it simple" are soothing to me, and I try to live my life exactly in this way. Thanks for the gentle reminder. I appreciate the fact that you're a 'minimalist" in so many areas in your life, Anita. I really do. : )

love, ~Sheri

Whenever I wake up to see an email announcing a post from you, I know that my morning will begin with soft beguiling words that will start my day with the romantic thought-aroma of old photos and treasured ephemera.

And you never disappoint.

Lovely photos - especially that still life with the vase and books - a short story could be written about how they came to be there!

Hope the Winter was very good to you and the Spring is bringing you some color and joy!

Your poetic words and photographs have blown me away today, I am enchanted by both. Thank you.

That one Rose, pushing itself over the hard edge of the mantel, softly tries to escape the others, also lovely. Moststill content to rest quietly with each other, but that one rose explores the edge... Gorgeous roses.

Jayne, I can't seem to click on your name to leave you a direct comment, but your observation of that one rose is brilliant. How I sometimes feel like that rose...

Hello Talented Artist and Lovely Anita!
I have been anxiously awaiting this visit to you ever since I saw you pop up in my email. But timing was everything to me so that I could savor this moment on the web with you.
This wondrous focus of light draws me in to your photographs which are brimming with depth and character. I am particularly drawn to the first photograph of the roses, silver plate and books as it forces me to ask questions about when and who visited this spot. Was it a man, a woman, lovers and did they sit side by side and smell those gorgeous blush upright roses and share their dreams? True art my dear.
Much Love,
Jemma

Hello, Anita! It's been while! As usual, your photos are amazing-- romantic and a bit mysterious at the same time. :)

Chère Anita,

Quel plaisir de te lire à nouveau.

Tes paysages sont toujours fascinants
de même que tes natures mortes...

Et comme tes mots sont impressionnants…

Je te souhaite des jours de printemps plein de bonheur…

Dans les courants du temps ...
l'aube éternelle ...
la fleur de ton coeur s’épanouit...
comme le désir du printemps ...
