      Lovely. Anyone interested in nature & poetry might want to check out “Conversations” by Clem J. Nagel & Elizabeth C. Nagel. Similar mood to Leaf & Twig. Enjoy!

    Very nice! I wonder if they were waiting for some poor unsuspecting hawk to fly by.

  3. Helen DeRamus, Visual Artist – Marietta – I am a fine artist working in oil paint and creating drawings on paper. My primary medium is oil paint on cradled wood using cold wax medium. Work on paper, using India Ink and graphite is a major part of my practice. Drawings lead me to the development of ideas and though the drawings may stand alone, they also lead to larger work in oil. The smaller drawings are often used as an inspiration of larger drawings. My paintings are about all the visual scraps, translucent bits and pieces, and the neuronal fragments found in the layers of memory. Using the landscape as a metaphor, the paintings are excavated from my personal memories. Throughout the United States and Canada, I have paintings, prints, photographs, and works on paper included in corporate, public and private collections including: Jacksonville State University, Ventyx Corporation, Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, Georgia Perimeter College, North Georgia College and State University, The ART Station, the Ben Hill-Fitzgerald County Library, the Women's Center at Kennestone Hospital, the Atlanta Women's Foundation in Atlanta, Georgia, and Livingston College at Rutgers University in New Jersey. I am represented in Atlanta, Georgia by TEW Galleries; in Marietta, Georgia by by Robert Kent Galleries; in Homestead, Alabama by Art Alley; and In Saugatuck, Michigan by ROAN & BLACK contemporary gallery. My studio is located in the Artisan Resource Center in Marietta, Georgia a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia.

    So that’s what they’re doing…telling stories! I hear the birds in our back yard trees twittering, especially in the early morning, and always wonder what they’re talking about 🙂

  5. Wonderful: An interesting photo combined with imaginative words, beautifully expressed.

  6. carlfmaulbeck – USA – In the movie "Harvey", Elwood P Dowd, played by Jimmy Stewart, explains coping with the world this way: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony

  7. Kristin Maija Peterson – My day adventure is running operations and functioning as idea generator for Grand Ciel Branding & Design. My nights and weekend adventure is feeding the artist side. My work involves capturing the details in nature often overlooked and the abstract expanses of mid-western prairies. I’m on the hunt for the next big idea that can creatively catapult me into the realm of “professional artist.” That’s part of the adventure, too.

    Crows are incredible smart and social birds. I would bet half of the flock conversing in the tree are related. I also understand that crows can recognize human faces and get to know who belongs in the neighborhood and who is a stranger. Our own stories about crows are mixed. In European folklore, crows (and ravens) are figures of sinisterness and malice. But to Native Americans, crows are revered messengers. I prefer the latter sentiment. Striking photo. Love birch trees, love crows, but especially love seeing them together.

  8. I love this capture! I’ve been seeing so many crows lately, it’s crazy, and they’ve been in huge flocks making such a loud ruckus, it’s great.

  10. Cynthia Guenther Richardson – Pacific NW – Hello fellow readers and bloggers, Writing has always been a powerful connector to diverse ideas and people. We each are a meaningful part of this beautiful, ever-widening web of life. Blogging enables more interaction, which I love even after 11 years of blogging posts on three different sites. For thirty years I was an addictions/mental health counselor and also a manager of home care services for elderly folks. Now that I have hit 70 and am more devoted to a creative life! I've published online or in literary journals/collections several times, including fiction and creative non-fiction pieces and poetry over five decades. Additionally, I was nominated for a Pushcart Prize for an excerpt of my novel-in-progress, Other than Words (the work gathering dust at present), about a mute dancer and her impact on her adopted community and a world-travelling photojournalist. I also am working on a connected set of stories about a close-knit town in northern Michigan. On Wordpress I enjoy writing about living richly despite (or because of) life's setbacks and a diagnosis of heart disease at age 51. Posts tagged "memoir" share spiritual adventures, interactions with nature, the healing of trauma's impact and challenges of writing full-time. Short stories and creative nonfiction, and poetry are favorite genres but I enjoy sharing my photography as well My hope is my offerings reflect a profound faith in God and our humanness which cloaks spiritual natures. I include myself as part of the diverse group of writers who discover and share the illuminating, positive experiences amid life's uncertainties and hardships. Let me hear from you when you visit--I appreciate your comments a great deal. Blessings and regards, Cynthia
