Leap Into Spring: Green

green

Alicia (of Project Alicia), Rebecca (of Bumbles and Light), and Kristi (of Live and Love ... Outloud) are offering a 6-week photography challenge aimed at capturing the beauty of spring. This week's prompt is green and I am happy to have a very green photo this week. If you'd like to participate or find out more info, click on the button below! I captured this shot of my rhododendron bush earlier this week while the sun was setting through our neighbor's trees. I was very happy that I somehow got some bokeh in my photo - it's never intentional! lol...every once in awhile, my lovely point-and-shoot just does it without any input from me.

  1. Sherri, I read your post at Tracy's blog...and I wanted to say thank you. I also have dealt with major anxiety, sometimes to the point of stopping me on my tracks and I always thought I was alone...

  3. Your depth of field here is just gorgeous Sherri. interesting about the "anxiety", a book that i loved for myself, and really did impact my anxiety level, was THE POWER OF NOW, but Eckhart Tolle. Some of the principles in this have really been helpful to me. ( Not cured, LOL, but helped. Have you read this book???

    1. Jeanne, The Power of Now was the book I was going to do for Photo Art Friday!!! lol...it's the book that has had the biggest impact on me in my life. It truly helped me see things in a new perspective and I have read it twice...in fact, it's been a few years and I should read it again just to be reminded of all its wonderful points.
