Spring in mind

I edited this old flower photo of mine again with lightroom and was able to get much more depth and details to it so I decided to share it again.

Flowers don’t worry about how they’re going to bloom. They just open up and turn toward the light and that makes them beautiful. — Jim Carrey

Roses in bloom

Flowers, Interiors, Photography

Over a week a go I got these roses and still they bring beauty a joy to me.

I did two versions of this digitar art piece – Dame , this blue toned and one in green tones – then, as usual, I could not decide which was better, so I decided to post both. Which do you prefer? Dame in Blue

About, Black and White photos, Flowers, Photography

I have been blogging for some time. In the begin I was slow getting followers, as I had no idea of what I was doing. Them in 2014 I gained a lot of new followers, I was very active…, back then.I started to work fulltime again and surprise, surprise, it slowed down. This spring I have gained many new followers to my surprise and joy.

I am so glad and happy for the old followers, and grateful that you still come and comment, even if I am very bad and lazy about doing it myself. Sorry about that!

I am also extremely happy for the new ones, thanks so much for the follows it means a lot to me.

I am one short for 1000 followers…anyone want to be the 1000 follower?
