Day 193 – July 12, 2018
Quintessential – PAW / Fountain – Cee’s Black & White Challenge / Splash – Thursday’s Special PAWC / Solace – WODC / Accomplice – FOWC / Groove – RDP /
I feel like it’s been a while since I submitted a black & white for Cee. Truth be told, it has been pretty difficult finding a subject that would look good in b&w that would fit in with the rest of the challenges. And while today’s may be a wee bit of a stretch, I just thought the subject looked good in b&w, and it looked good in color as well, so it’s a 2 for 1 (even better, two different photos!) It was a great day to head to the park with my accomplice, Anastasia. It also was a great change of pace, as I sought the quintessential location to find a little solace just to escape. For a while, as I sat there in a meditative trance, I noticed the water, as it fell over the side, appear to be small streams following an organized line, as though they were in little carved grooves. It was somewhat hypnotizing and it was very easy to lose track of time. Then again, nothing is more soothing to me than the sound of the roar of the surf, the gentle swish of the waves, the rumble of a waterfall, or the patter and plops of a fountain.

This is a calming photo! Water is my go to for quiet and peace. All you can hear is the sound of the water running its journey!

I’ve been very busy at work! And I don’t always take the time to read, but it’s a quiet night and I enjoy looking at your photos!

That’s so sweet. Thank you! Must be nice having the quiet. I have to steal time, usually, to catch up! It’s kind of crazy that I am able to realize I haven’t heard from, or sent a message to, someone in a while. 🙂💕

Thank you! I sometimes have to make the time to find peace so I can recharge! When I don’t, my mind gets chaotic!

I need to take some pointers. My mind spins around so much you could dry clothes.

I am with you. Most of the time my mind races. So, I make a point to quiet the chaos! Then I go back to my chaotic brain!
