Wonder

Wonder comes in many sizes.
Unfortunately, it seems that the bigger one gets,
the smaller their wonderment.

Thank goodness for the little ones who remind us
to pause — as often as we can – and wonder.

The Daily Post one-word prompt: Wonder
Cee’s Black and White Challenge: Large Subjects

on the path

You may stumble when you
walk amongst shadows,
but in the darkest of dark,
the vision held in your mind
will shed guiding light
on the path before you.

walk 2

Keep to the path, and
give thanks for the shadows,
for the light can be blinding and
obscure your way.
But the vision held in your mind
will stay tempered and clear
by remembrance of shadows and
the respite of shade.

Cee’s Black & White photo challenge: Outdoor ~ Walks or Roads

Three Arches in Black & White

window5

When I saw the subject for this week’s Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge, I knew I had the perfect photo. The theme this week is “Arches, Domes and Half Circles.”

So here’s a photo of a half-circle window that abstractly depicts the Three Arch Rocks in Oceanside, OR. I just finished making this window and we installed it a couple of days ago.

If you’d like to see the window in color (recommended), I’ve posted it on my Glass Gallery page here.

Here are some more photos for the Challenge:
