Light as a Feather... Gump-Style

Where's the Forrest Gump Feather Theme Song when you need it?

I found this treasure while working in the yard yesterday. The colors took my breath away. My thoughts turned to the scene in Forrest Gump, the one where the feather rises into the air and tosses and twirls as it floats away. Oh, to be as light as a feather....

Mother Nature's Canvas

An early awakening...sunlit clouds...pink, lavender and gray...distant sounds...crowing...cawing...a dew kissed landscape...stillness...quiet breath.

Sky shots from this morning.

Do you think the bird in this photo is flamingo pink like the clouds?
It's as if Van Gogh added a few highlights when I wasn't looking. 
The roofline of the garage points to the heavens as if to say, "Look up!"
I love the colors in this photo. Caramel coffee with a touch of orange zest.
Ahhh... nature-made lavender and pink froth.

Imagination At Play

A couple chairs, an umbrella, and two little girls filling their day. The carriage ride was completely unexpected and lasted all of ten minutes.
