proof you can subtract color and still create beauty


i speak of red or gray...

black and white

the blog
and project
from the talented
e l k

you must visit if you haven't already
and see her beautiful work.

~~~

this is just a thank you post
to e l k
for featuring one of my b+w photos
from my most recent post
on her blog.

i like to feature the work of other photographers
on my ...shhhh blog,
and i am usually told by the person i feature
that they would be honored
to have their photo there.
that brings me much pleasure.
so i was very delighted to be asked for permission
to feature one of my photos for the first time.
why, yes, it
does feel good!

thank you, sweet e l k.
you made my day.

in fact, thanks to all who left such nice comments
about those b+w photos
{in my last post }.
it was a lot of fun to do
something a little different than the usual.

and for that matter,
thank you to all
who stop by regularly
or once in a while,
and comment regularly
or once in a while
and continue to take genuine interest
in my photography
and even {surprisingly } my words.

i don't always have time to respond.
but it's always apprciated.
for some of you, i'm not even able to reciprocate
with comment love,
because i have computer issues
{namely outdated browser software }
that keeps me from commenting on your space.

i might not say thank you enough here.
i may not seem as grateful as i am.
but trust me.
i am so very grateful
and glad
and honored
that you stop by
and converse with me
in my little corner of the blogging world.

i just thought you should know.
always.

and because may can be such a colorful month,
i better leave you with some color,
and say
"a happy may day to you all!"

tulip in the window
welcome, may

{i promise... no more tulip photos.
well, not for a while, anyway.
it's just that i couldn't resist showing you all
a close-up view of that gorgeous little curl
that you see on that petal above
or that fabulous variegation
of the opened tulip seen from above.}

I love coming to your blog. (I have a soft spot for trees and flowers, too). That last picture is wonderful. They all are, actually.

I think it's great that you gave so much attention to the tulips. They are only with us a short time--at least here in Ohio. Last year my daughter sent me 15 cut tulips of different colors and varigations. Stunning--actually rather breath-taking--just as these photos of yours are!

Seriously, are you able to stop time with magic powers so you can put so much time into such lovely blog posts??

Bring on the tulips!
