About I am a summer child- and keep looking for it! So grabbed sunny day. These fishing lakes nearby just behind the local DIY store. Handy when you go to get bits for jobs at home- supposed to be working and end up walking!

Leave your Mark

Time never leaves

Last leaf left

Leaves black rain

Leave art room verse

Leave no fear

Leaving innocence and grief

Lost in Leaves

Leave our Mark

Mary Slade   {K:40918} 11/23/2006
Glad you like this winter day Elizabeth. I was surprised just hitting the usual "contrast" etc. buttons made the blue bluer! I usually have to make things up more!


Annemette Rosenborg Eriksen   {K:55401} 11/23/2006
A peaceful somewhat melancholic image due to the end of light and warmth. Still we must be happy for the possibility to go indoor and cuddle up in a warm couch with a book and some hot chocolate:-)
Best wishes,
Annemette


Mary Slade   {K:40918} 11/23/2006
Thanks Annemette- you're right- tis sad to see long warm days vanish, but I can put up with winter for a short while if it has clear blue skies and cosy nights!

What a beautiful stretch of waterway my sweet Mary and I love how the trees' tones are neatly interspaced. Some very thoughtful planting back in the past and very well spotted by you. Gorgeous rich tones in the rippling water and wonderful reflections along the bank. Well done to you my lovely girl......I am so pleased that you are posting which tells me that with the passing of time you are rapidly getting stronger and stronger......WONDERFUL!:) :) :) My very best wishes to you as always and a big hug.......Ray;)
