let peace shine on you.

the boys' grandmother (on the other side of the family) died, she was i think about 70-ish. there were so many flowers, of blush pink and reds and cream roses. and calla lilies! but alas, out of respect, i never pulled out my camera. so i left early and went shopping at sears.

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are truly appreciated.

Sorry to hear that the boys have lost a grandmother. I like the angle of the lines. Much more effective than if they went straight across.

A dynamic capture, sorry to hear of the loss, my Mum was granny to 17 blood and 7 blended and is totally missed by them all. Special Grannies have a corner of our hearts, all our lives, even when they are gone for many years.

Lovely diagonals, thinking of you

I love calla Lillie's and the light and shadow from the blind enhances this one!

[Francoise]

I'm taken with the faint purple tones in the flower.

So sorry for their loss!

Stunning composition with a beautifully simple subject

[Bill Fenske]

Sorry for the sad news. Cool comp and capture.

[Osia Strasner]

Great contrast between the diagonals of the shades and the softness of the lillies! It kills me, too, when I cannot photograph all the beauty around me, and in these situations it is definitely frowned upon!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Those are the kinds of photo opps where you wait until everyone clears the room and take a quick shot hoping no one will see you! Yes, definitely better to not take one at all! This has a very modern feel to it. My sympathies on your family's loss.
