Greetings @stevenwood,

So very kind of you to drop by and express your response to the principle and icing.

No worries....I am here for the principles.....the photographs are here to make them a bit more palatable and sometimes complement the principle...for example...these flowers, Hellebores, have a rather drooping even forlorn posture....which one may interpret as un-happy yet they are very real flowers just as people are very real souls/persons.

Your missives...if one may call them that..... are ever so interesting a ponderance which you have been kind enough to write about in the comment section.

Thank you for your words concerning the photographs......yes...I agree....art should be lovely....bring joy to one's person. And yes....Elegance and style would be ever present if bleujay can manage it as it is my person....expressed.

Appreciate the opportunity your comment provided to think on these things.

Think 'Salons of Paris from long ago....'.

Enjoyed the cuppa.

Cheers!

NB Here's hoping you will get behind a camera.....You might be surprised to see what happens. No matter how one may go about expressing one inner self whether it is through a camera, artistic endeavour or writing...one finds their sea legs as it were and finds it to be enjoyable. Principle; Practice is the master teacher.
