Quotes to live by or "WORDS HAVE MEANING"



The Artists Synchroblog (May) – The Artists Synchroblog is a group of bloggers who post every other month on the same topic, sharing our experience or perspective. On alternate months we undertake a Pinterest Project where we each take inspiration from a pinterest picture, create something (art, a meal, a DIY project, etc) and then post about it.

I don't really have any favorite sayings... so I went with the old standby 

"The grass is always greener on the other side....


In my case I've always wanted to live somewhere where palm trees can be grown outside. I made that comment in my focus on life blog last weekend and got numerous comments back from people who had palm trees on how much they disliked them!
 


But this is the view out the window of the gallery  today rain and a blooming forsythia... nary a palm tree in site... but my grass is GREEN!


Here's a list of other people participating in this months challenge!

Week 18 Abstract Photography

Focus on Life week 18....  Sally suggested that we google abstract photography.. this was my "first hit"...  I'm seeing close up macro I think collaging random shaped chunks of photographs would make a neat abstract photo too... but that's beyond my limited photodestructive capabilities!

So here we go

Palm tree... my goal in life is too live somewhere that palm trees can be grown outside....

But for now I'll have to settle for the indoor variety....


Took quite a few pictures of beads... only to discover that I am a horrible housekeeper and all you could see was dust...
 
This orchid currently has two flower stocks... the most recent one is a different colour...
Yesterday for a change was totally calm.. so I couldn't resist throwing in a picture I took of one of the government fishing wharves.
 
I'm not sure if I've actually captured the theme of abstract photography... to see how other people interpreted this weeks prompt check out sally's blog!
