seldom looked into. "

How Beautiful! Love that quote by Ansel Adams. And your collages.... they are just stunning!

I hope your sister is doing better!

Extremely wonderful photos. I love B&Ws. Some of the photos, especially the one in the lower left corner looks like it was taken with a infrared filter. What kind of camera are you using?

Thanks Kerry ... wish I had better news regarding my sister, again hospitalized with another bout of endocarditis among other things. Another 6 wks of treatment at best and possibly valve replacement. Starting this horrific ordeal, she lost her vision, so we still have that to deal with. Thanks for your concern. For release, I enjoy visiting your lovely blog.

Hi Joey,
I think we are living in parallel

Cheers Mark

I've always loved B & W photos, Ki. They tell a story that can't be captured in color. I love my macro lens and find the ease of my Konica Minolta fine for my blog.
