Nostalgic coffee cups

These size cups were used to drink coffee about 20 years ago, some folks still do. I got these  from my grandmother as  a wedding gift, I think they have been used less than 10 times. The design has been approved by Queen Elisabeth 🙂

Here is southern Finland the spring is very early, like a month ahead. Today it was +9 C and I took a walk in the woods, loved seeing the sun coming between the trees. Beautiful shadows and love  details to see…this does good to the soul.

MakroTex – Love

I know these do not really qualify as  macro shots- more like close-ups. Topic is love, I thought of wedding rings, a kiss…I chose these photos because one of my cats, Sisko, was run over by a car past winter, and I can clearly see that she is also missed by her brother, Veikka and by us. She was dearly loved.

Värikollaasi #169 – Color Photo-collage

2-2014-03-01 1-2014-03-04

The idea in this challenge is to use 3-4 colors from the sample, I’ve added the sample colors into the photo-collage. I aim to use the original colors in the photos, that way it is more challenging to find the colors. This is what I came up with this week.
