LOVE your bookshelves. I have some huge bookshelves at my home too, and used to think I had so much room. Now they are stuffed, and thinking what I really need for my books is their own home. I love your flower shot with your DSLR, and it is so lovely in sepia. Also what an amazing gift to come in your mailbox. Bet you are still enjoying your writing. I think I am going to take a writing class that susannah conway is doing, and looking forward to it!

I love all your finds, Sarah, but my favourite is the last one. The composition is great. I love how the edge of the table kind of follows on the line of the flower stem and your depth of field is perfect to get us to focus on that lovely flower. It's a perfect summer photograph. Wishing you a super weekend. All the best, Bonny

Lovely gifts from Roxi, and finds this week Sarah. The bookcases are fantastic, and so nice you still have room to add to your collection. Enjoy those Stabilo pens, and the spoon holder.

Hi Sarah, How exciting to receive a gift from Roxi! Sounds like you two are souls just waiting to meet! You are right, it is hard to imagine that beautiful window in Lowes ... what great processing work! Your flower find at the farmers market is stunning! Hope you have a great weekend!

Nicki said...

Lowes - wow! How fun to get pictures in print - so underestimated in how it re-energizes the passion.
