Photo of the Day

Just a little impression from my photo walk wishing you all a wonderful day!

Texture Tuesday

This is my entry for Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday processed with Kim's free texture "Serenity" as was the rule for today's texture party.

Go over and have a look - the entries are so amazing.

Unwinding

Finally a few days off - to relax, take photo walks and have the time to notice even the small things around me. 

I spotted this little guy on a walk this morning. Normally, I'm not such a huge fan of snails (although I admire their houses), but detecting this one somehow felt like the epitome of unwinding. It just made me happy and I thought it would be ideal for Lisa's Creative Exchange.

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a great start into the week.

Patience's Reward

SOOC

On my little photo walk yesterday I saw this cat only a few steps away from me and the word "photo" must have been written all over my face. I guess she could read it, as she escaped over a fence and eyed my suspiciously from the other side.

I spent almost 10 minutes there, talking softly and making little noises until she finally decided to come out again, taking large circles around me and then, in the end, letting me touch and stroke her - just a tiny little bit. As she looked up at me, I knew I had to get that camera out of the bag with my free hand and try my luck to capture those eyes. It was this one shot and she was gone again.

I'm glad I tried it, but even if I hadn't succeeded in taking this photo I enjoyed the quiet time with this shy little lady after the hectic of last week.

I will link this up Lisa's Creative Exchange where I hope to visit all the wonderful entries over the next few days. I will also take this as a contribution to Kat's theme "Waiting to Click", because wait I did...!

Have a wonderful week everyone!

In A Hurry

Yesterday I planned on writing a little post for Lisa's Creative Exchange but somehow the day was over before I managed to get down to it. As I also wanted to participate in Kim Klassen's Texture Tuesday today, I decided to combine these two wonderful challenges.

So, here is a photo of some tulips I bought on Friday. They were white when they were still closed, but they opened up over the weekend, displaying a wonderful pink and petals almost in the shape of a rose. I added Kim's beautiful "warmsun" texture, as was the rule for today's Texture Tuesday.

Unfortunately, I have to get some work done here, but I hope to be visiting your blogs again soon!

Have a wonderful week and take a look at all those beautiful links over at Lisa's and Kim's blogs.
