Wow! It would be nice to see thew world like a bird!! Not wishing, just saying, but I am willing to wait..


Now if there are any other image that can say this, it is this one! Very good shot, the quotes very well goes with the shot.


And if there is something that needs water, it is this one. Looks forlorn...nice illustration of a cause.


Everything lives and life is everything...that is what this place is for -- to help give life, to live, to discover other lives other than ours, etc., even a carrot is alive, is a life, has a life.


So true...everyone needs somebody.


Nicely quoted along with a good bird shot.


Very nice soliloquy .


It is human nature for some to feel superior because of colour. It is wrong we know, but there are people who feels good doing it, expressing it so and making the other feel small. It is how the other person feels -- if s/he allows it to be so.

Nandy, people like Stevie Wonder, if you have heard of him, do not know he is black until someone told him so. He could have had of yellow or blue for all he cares. I had not seen a black person, really black skin, until I was about 18 or so, but I have always been told to stay out of the sun so my skin will not be black. I always thought everyone around me are white (but not caucasian, just have white skin) because I always want to go out no matter what the weather conditions would be, especially in the sunshine. Then I was told my skin is actually brown. It feels like the world collapse under me. I was about 7 years old at the time. All my relations, including my brother have white skin. I was different, even if we both have the same parents. Only my father and me are/were brown skinned. People around me says it is a "working class" skin colour. Somewhere underneath Stevie Wonder is a talent for something else: music. Each of us have a talent and goodness despite having different skin colour. Find it, know it and be proud of it. It is not skin colour that makes a man -- it is our character.

Sorry for the late response and lengthy. I went in yesterday but all the pictures that I saw were small boxes. And sorry about being sensitive to skin colour -- because I happened to be discriminated because of it.

Yes izzie; the thought about the body and soul you conveyed are the same as i do hold;,....and regarding skin, it was never a botheration for me; i am happy with my skin and everybody should be happy with his/her own :). Thank you very much :)

Your statement is absolutely spot on and a beautiful flower picture to go with it. I like the water droplets. Fresh clean look! :)

#954 - Very nice photo of a millipede.
#955 - I like the white flowers and the "bonus" spider in photo, too.
#956 - Beautiful photo of a Budgerigar! I remember having a yellow-colored one as a pet when I was a child.
#955 (Different than the one above) - Beautiful red flower petal and anther "bonus" spider!
#956 (Different than the one above) - I think it's a species of finch, but I know it's a great photo.
#957 - Lovely photo of a red flower bud.
#958 - More "Budgie" birds!

Of course, all of your accompanying quotes/words of wisdom are insightful and thoughtful. I enjoy viewing your work and reading your wise soliloquies.

Thank you very much, John. I think the blur you mention -the elliptical one- is done in photoshop :)

Sandy, thank you very much; here it is Monsoon; so one has to capture flower as soon as it comes out; otherwise petals may get partially spoilt by heavy rains :)

I beg to differ -- glow can also originate inside you, e.g., a pregnant woman's glow on her whole personality comes from within, in happy anticipation of a newborn (first one specially...)

There comes a time when something happens to make you depressed, all you need is 5 minutes of sunshine or sunlight coming inside your window. Bathe yourself in it and with it just for 5 minutes and it will make you glow and full of happy ideas. Inspiration comes from light. This is how we were taught as young kids.

Hope you do not mind my commenting on your statement...
