  1. derrickjknight – UK – I am an octogenarian enjoying rambling physically and photographing what I see, and rambling in my head as memories are triggered. I also ramble through a lifetime's photographs. In these later years much rambling is done in a car.

    Very beautiful, a great way to start a Sunday Morning.

  4. Gretchen Del Rio – Crestline, California, USA – I first discovered the magic of water based colors when many years ago I began to paint with procion dyes on silk. I loved the unexpected quality of the process. It was so exciting to never be sure what the colors and water would combine to produce. It seemed as though the medium had its own passion. Painting with watercolors and paper is much the same. I love the color combinations and separations that occur spontaneously as the color floats on the water. You can never totally predict what effect will result. If you try to control the medium too much, your painting will be very tight losing its aliveness. The artist must be bold and decisive or the work will not be clear and fresh. It is really like a dance. It becomes a controlled folly in knowing when to let go and when to take charge of the direction that the painting is taking. The images that I paint reflect my emotions and are expression of my life experience. They are not extensively planned, but rather evolve as the painting progresses. I am always surprised by the end result since it comes into being because of what the medium and emotion has suggested. The paintings are from my heart and I always fall in love with the subject. I believe that we are all connected and, if an image touches you, it is because we all have the same heart even though our paths may be different. Most of all, painting what I paint makes me happy. The paintings are my own path unfolding. They are an opening door for me and contain my own passion for life.

  5. brightonhill2000 – Hello there and thanks for stopping by Brighton Hill Naughty and Nice. I am a lover of fashion, books, and life. I’ve written a bestselling young adult mermaid series (Watermagic Series) and a bestselling young adult/new adult vampire series (Roseville Vampires). Twilight and Vampire Diaries fans will surely love these books. At present I am writing an adult contemporary romance that I hope you will love too. My fashion tends to be affordable, conservative, and classy with a secret edge. Though I am quite nice, I can’t help but being a little naughty. Thanks for joining me on this magical journey we call life.

  6. chelawriter – I remain committed to making a hobby - writing - into a career with one novel being marketed to publishers, lots of short pieces coming and going, another novel getting underway, and also a research project on creativity and coping with the effects of Parkinson's Disease.

    Would love to repost with your permission. May I?

  7. judybarton – Still in love, complicated, almost stupid, interested to recognize herself. "Up to the age of eighteen years old everybody writes poems; after, only two categories of people may continue to do it: poets and idiots." (Benedetto Croce). Obviously I do not consider myself a poet.

    lol … yes, even if the light without refex is nothing, as I said with a friend of mine …

  8. 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

  9. Dr. Denny Wilkins – Dr. Denny Wilkins professes journalism at a small, private university in the Northeast. He has climbed, hiked, kayaked, photographed, skied, and otherwise meandered aimlessly throughout the American West for decades. He has degrees in geology, environmental studies, and communication — and has tried to make use of them as a co-founder of the progressive cultural blog ScholarsandRogues.com. He’s broadly interested in how the world works and why it works that way. He hates writing, although he does like having written well.
    Dr. Denny Wilkins says:

    Wonderful exposure. Keeps the veined detail so well.

  10. Robyn Haynes – Australia – Robyn enthusiastically pursues a green and writerly life on the north coast of New South Wales, Australia, where her background as a doctor of social anthropology equips her with an interesting slant on the human condition. She spends much time indulging a passion for her garden where she ponders life and attempts to stave off existential angst. In her more reflective moments she makes wry observations on courtyard gardening and its parallels with life.

    Its all been said – run out of superlatives!

    Thank you for all your insights both photographic and poetic

  11. firefly1275 – Louisiana – V. Rose enjoys creating mystical characters and worlds, with a touch of the modern day world. When she is not writing or thinking up her next story ideas, she is enjoying South Louisiana sunsets.

    Very beautiful photo.

  12. My Silly World – A simple woman Who thinks like a girl Lives in a simple world Who likes silly things A novice artist Who likes to draw simple pictures A try-hard writer Who loves to put her feelings into writing Specially when she is sad or happy She have lots of dreams and sometimes Impossible dreams But still an optimistic person She learned to love this two mottos: “Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is a gift of God, which is why we call it the present.” ― Bil Keane 'The power of thinking Think happy and you'll be happy Think sad and you'll be sad' This makes her stress free and gives positive outcome in her whole day. Though not everyday but still it help her to stay cool. Simple poem will give you hint about her About Her She is not your dream girl But she can be your real woman She may pissed off your day But she will give smile in your face She may be a contrary of your likes But she is the one you need She may act or talk silly things But she will leave you happy thoughts She will never be your love at first sight But she will always be your last love *aei.03* *fyi* Some of my pictures are via google (credit to the owner). Pictures with name tag "*aei.03*"is my own photograph. :)

  13. bobnarlyne – Austin, TX – We are Bob and Arlyne Draper. We have traveled a lot in our married life and continue to do so. We have two grown children and six grandchildren. We've been around the block a few times, to our enormous benefit. We have been pretty serious birders (and serious amateur photographers) for over 14 years. We started late with this passion but in all our travels we check out the bird landscape. We have been fortunate to do birding in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Peru, Colombia, Canada and much of the United States. Arlyne is from Costa Rica and I'm from Arizona. We like to pass along experiences we've had on the road (or not) and perhaps hear from like-minded people. We don't expect to have thousands of followers but that's OK. We hope we can entertain and inform and share our favorite stories and adventures with other people. We are currently in our motor-home, having left our house in the hands of friendly renters while we're on the road. Check for the occasional personal stories, bird pictures, and other notes as we go along. Thanks for your interest and we hope you're having as much fun as we are. Regards, Bob and Arlyne
