Stones

Taking a trip back into the archives for today's Try 4 July word- stones. When I saw this word, I immediately thought of the Jerusalem Archaeological Park and a quote I read there:

The Jerusalem stone, so resilient and supple, bows to the transient follies of humankind, bearing testimony like a hundred witnesses, and yet, remains silent.

Chaim Be'er

I thought it would be nice to give the picture a more antique feel with the HDR effect in iPiccy.
Nice one Ann

Thank you Sally, Gerry, Judith, Rick, Kerri, Maggie, Carla, Chris and Terry. I must admit I got lazy and took a picture of my original picture and now I'm wishing I'd scanned it as I originally planned. Maybe I'll fix it and swap it out.

@taffy Thank you Taffy! They would probably show up even better if I scanned the shot rather than taking a picture of it because that was quicker! Lazy girl yesterday- sad but true.
@twr Thank you Timothy!
@sangwann Thank you Dione! I should have scanned it, but the hdr effect did give it a feeling of antiquity.

scanned or shot, it probably would have the same effect: dusty as if it just came out of the dig. i like it, my friend. i do.

@summerfield Thanks Vikki! It makes me think of some of those old photos from the 1800's.
