“Ephemerals: That’s what Hub called them; flowers that bloomed and died in a matter of weeks, before the trees leafed out and shaded them. She liked the way the word sounded in her head. I am an ephemeral. It made her feel like something passing and precious.”
– Pamela Todd, The Blind Faith Hotel
Hello Tobias. I was thinking about you yesterday while I was planning future challenges. Are we still on for June with Perspective and Anti-Perspective?
Paula, he visto que al pinchar en el título de mi foto no se subraya ni lleva a ninguna página. He debido hacer algo mal. Disculpa que te moleste por ello.
Acabo de corregirlo. Gracias por avisarme. Hoy cambiaron algo en post edit y no me resulto tambien porque estaba apurrada en el trabajo. La proxima vez hare “double check” 🙂
Muchas gracias.
Por cierto, he mirado tu blog, pero no encuentro tu post de este viernes de Blanco y negro. Y no sé como habría que colgar una entrada para ese reto.
Blanco y negro sale los domingos no viernes. Hay una pagina en mi menu bar entitulada Scheduled challenges – alla puedes ver a que fecha saldre cual reto. https://bopaula.wordpress.com/scheduled-challenges/
Beautiful and perfect timing. Today is the 4th anniversary of my Mom’s death. It was a very spiritual ending of a life and I feel that she is still with me most of the time. Purple was her favorite color.
I looked forward to coming here this morning to see what you’d posted and you don’t disappoint, Paula. 🙂 I love this song and the photo is exquisite. The word ephemeral is such an evocative one. I love it too. 🙂
What did the doctor have to say? And are you in Portugal next month? There’s no gap in your Thursday’s Specials. Hugs!
well I think you know that you never have to reply – but in this case, I am glad it was delayed – I was able to come back and hear this clapton song again…. 🙂
Fabulous picture, Paula!
