    Absolutely stunning!!! Please consider yourself officially invited to participate this year's 5th Annual Gratitude (word) Quilt. Instructions (it is very simple) and a link that explains the origin of the word quilt can be found at the top of my blog. In past years there have been participants from every continent except Antarctica. I hope you'll join us:-)

    Laura took the words right out of my keyboard. ;-) I especially LOVE the first image--you must put that in a frame and put it on your wall. Gorgeous!

      Oh thank you so much Beth. When you said that i specilly looked at it intently and yes it looks special now! Haha, sometimes someone has to reinforce something for the owner to realize the beauty in his job.

    That firespike is stunningly gorgeous. I would love to have it in my garden, but I am pretty sure it will survive here. Too bad :-(. The bud looks so yummy -- like a stick ice-cream :-). Very nice shots.
