Weekly Winners…

Posted by: frogpondsrock on Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Monday morning there was an amazing covering of frost on my car. Normally the frost is just a plain sheet of ice that I quickly remove with a bucket of water. This frost was just beautiful and I took heaps of shots before I reluctantly cleared the windscreen and drove to the pottery.

Enter the ninja….

I was at the beach this morning just before Dawn…

As I was leaving I glanced back.

I was walking to the car when these trees caught my eye. They reminded me of a quote by Kahil Gibran.

“Trees are poems that earth writes upon the sky,

We fell them down and turn them into paper,

That we may record our emptiness.”

There are many many more weekly winners at Lotus aka sarcastic mom’s. cheers Kim

That is the coolest (no pun intended) looking frost ever! The last two shots are so clear and so bold and so amazing and so almost touchable or like you could just walk into them – seriously, I do think those two are my favorites of yours ever, and you take some gorgeous shots. Wow. I’m in awe.

“That we may record our emptiness”

Ain’t that the truth!

Gorgeous shots Kim. The frost looks like a cut crystal bowl my grandma gave me. But the trees are my favorite.
