That is just a bit of my Christmas week.
I hope you're happy and healthy. (I'm a under the weather but trying to get healthy again!)

Lovely family times. I hope 2020 will be the most wonderful year for you, Nancy!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jocelyn. I hope this year is better than last, for sure. And I hope the same for you and your family.
DeleteThe park looks delightful--love the sculptures! Hope you are better soon, take care!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Karen. I'm more than ready to feel better so I can get on with some things!
DeleteI'm sorry to hear that you're feeling under the weather - sending prayers that you will soon be feeling like a spring chicken once again! You photography is just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHi, Karin. It's been a very long time since I've felt like a spring chicken but I'll be pleased to be done with this cold and cough! Thank you for your prayers and for your kind words about my photographs.
DeleteThere is so much beauty in nature in the winter. The difference for me is that I have to hold still and look for it. It doesn't shout out to me like a summer rose garden or fall zinnia planting. It is quiet and soothing and waiting to be noticed. You're right about the blue on that woman statue. It has "Nancy" written all over it. It's a color Kim Diehl uses in her quilts a lot. I'm not sure what I would call it - do you have a name for that shade? Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteHi, Robin. You're so right about the winter colors. Seeing them in person is best. I think it's hard to photograph winter colors. From a distance a leafless hedge or bush looks beautiful but when I get closer, the color almost dissipates. The branches aren't close enough to take good photos of the colors.
DeleteI don't know what color that blue is called. This link (http://store.thequiltshow.com/Afternoon-Delight-Quilt-Kit-p/theq-kit-adbb.htm) has a quilt and they call the border Cadet Blue. But I think I've heard it called Prussian Blue and perhaps another name or two. I search out that blue whenever I'm at a fabric shop or looking at shirts at a thrift store.
Thanks for visiting.
So glad that you are sharing your photos. They are lovely. The reds in winter are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jennie. I love to see the red berries in winter, too, especially when I see them against snow (which we seem to be getting less and less of with each passing year!)
DeleteYou captured some lovely photos. I think I would enjoy that park!
ReplyDeleteHope you get feeling better.
Thank you, Janet. It really is a lovely garden/park, beautifully laid out and landscaped. Most of the Metro Parks are wild but this one is more refined.
DeleteThanks, I am feeling better. Just a lingering cough.
