Another one bites the dust . . .
Another week, well almost another month - yikes, where does the time go?
Another week, well almost another month - yikes, where does the time go?
It's still really gloomy around these parts, and I'm getting a little anxious for some beach time!
I'm longing for it actually . . .

But soon enough it will be in the 90's and the a/c bill will be out of control, in April!
So for now, I guess I'm going to embrace the gray days so that when the sun does shine it will be just that much sweeter. Oh who am I kidding, I'm not doing very well at embracing this weather and I'm feeling
vitamin D deficient! I think a trip to the tropics is in order?

Okay . . . ready, set, go!
1. Crossed: The bridge you cross when you get to it?
2. A Glimpse: I was enjoying the aroma of pink jasmine when I got a glimpse of this woman through the vine - oh and I may have had a glimpse of the sun for a few seconds as well!
3. Handwritten: A couple of postcards from my grandmothers side dated August 18, 1918, one a picture of a relative that did not make it back from WWI.
4. Bliss: I'm thinking that the flower to the bee is nothing short of pure bliss!!
5. Gray: Is it gray or grey? Well both are correct, but in America it's grAy and in England is grEy. Either way if we're talking skies they are both, dull, dreary, dismal and gloomy. . . and monotonous when it's day after day after day. It did make for some nice tones though and perfect for making into sepia!
Until the next hunt -
Love, Kim

I LOVE that bee shot and something about your glimpse shot really draws me in! Lovely set! (I always spelt it grEy...but I recently found out I wasn't supposed to; must be all that British Lit I read!)
ReplyDeletewow - your last two shots are stunning!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots this week! Your last two are absolutely breathtaking...but my favorite is glimpse!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shots, as always. I especially love handwritten. I just love old photographs!
ReplyDeleteGlimpse is divine. Wonderful set. And yes grey, gray had me wondering too :)
ReplyDeleteReally lovely set this week, Kim. So hard to pick a favourite, but because I i am deep into genealogy your handwriting shot warms my heart. The glimpse is a very close second.
ReplyDeleteLove that glimpse shot - so pretty. And it's definitely 'grey' here in England, if we'd ever written 'gray' at school it would have been marked as a spelling mistake - to me it just looks completely wrong when I see it written with an 'a' :O))
ReplyDeleteThese are all so beautiful! The bridge was genius, but handwritten is my favorite! Fab set!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots, especially the bridge and the postcards, thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteThese are all lovely!
ReplyDeleteFantastic shots...I love the bee. Really nice job of photographing it. I'm ready for spring and the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThose postcards, what amazing memories and treasures! And the shadow on that bridge, stunning! Fab finds, Kim!
ReplyDeleteWell done on this week's hunt. I like how you pulled from your grandmother's archives for 'handwritten'.
ReplyDeleteI love the glimpse and handwritten shots. Military history is one of our passions around here. In fact, we just finished studying WWI in history.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great set of pictures. Crossed and gray really touched me. Thanks as always.
ReplyDeleteLove all of these, but that last one is really nice. Do you know what kind of bird that is?
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful captures! I especially love your glimpse photo...and the handwritten image draws me in. I'm always so curious about the lives of people in old images; there are so many stories there. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI wish it was that warm here. It snowed last night! Nice set.
ReplyDeleteAll great shots, but I especially like your glimpse shot. I love how the woman is all bokeh-ey!
ReplyDeleteSuperb grey (yes its 'grey' in Australia too) capture - love the set of trees in the back right and the bird flying off.
ReplyDeleteYou really nailed it this week - gorgeous shots.
ReplyDeleteThe bee shot is amazing! I love those kind of shots. And who doesn't love sepia? Great set this week!
ReplyDeleteOh love them all....I can't even pick a fav this week. Love the bird in your last shot, and that "glimpse" is really lovely!!
ReplyDeleteNice job on the hunt. The handwritten one is my favorite. Didn't our grandparents generation have such beautiful handwriting?
ReplyDeleteYour glimpse is breathtaking beautiful! What a great idea and it worked so well.
ReplyDeleteLove both your glimpse AND your bliss shots!
ReplyDeleteGreat set! LOVE that glimpse shot!
ReplyDeleteI totally love those shadows on your bridge shot. But my FAV is your "glimpse" and that gorgeous DOF and how she is perfectly framed with the jasmine flowers and buds. Simply de-vine (no pun intended!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous set. They are all very well done and really nice.
ReplyDeleteMy top picks, Bliss and Handwritten
Kim, I particularly love the last photo...what a gorgeous tree and the hawk that is flying; beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love these! My favorite would be the glimpse! It is so beautiful and brings such nostalgic feelings!
ReplyDeleteWOW!! These are all amazing...
ReplyDeleteYour macro is great! I especially love Handwritten... so awesome. Great interpretation, and love the tone of the shot.
ReplyDeleteLove your handwritten image. Looking back in time is my favorite!
ReplyDeleteyour photos are incredible. Although I loved the shot of the bee, I have to say the handwritten note & photo touched my heart. I love fountain pens.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful set Kim, all so lovely! I love the history with Handwritten, so sad but so beautiful! Glimpse is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. The Handwritten is my fave, I think because I used to teach American History and I enjoyed giving the human side to the story.
ReplyDeleteall are amazing shots...my favorites are bliss and glimpse
ReplyDeleteWow this set is one of my favorites. Amazing! Following you!
ReplyDeleteI love your set! The bee and the glimpse shot are great, but I just love your handwritten. It is so cool that you have family artifacts from so long ago!
ReplyDeletePretty photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos! Love a glimpse!
ReplyDeleteThat bee photo is absolutely gorgeous! I also like your interpretation of crossed. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful interpretations, loving glimpse.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Kim. Love the flowers, the WWI photo and the last shot -- heck, they are all awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow, so awesome you have a photo/post card dated that far back!
ReplyDeleteOh, Kim, these are such wonderful images. I can't choose a favourite. I love the bridge. Glimpse is lovely. The handwritten is perfect. The bee macro... WOW! It's grey in Australia and I think sepia is great for that gloomy shot! :)
ReplyDeleteThese shots are absolutely wonderful! I love gray, crossed and glimpse... but they are all wonderful!
