Beautiful shots Carol, looks like art muse dog likes the camera, have a good week.
ReplyDeleteI just want to scoop up Art Muse and take him away with me to spend a day! He is almost as cute as my grandbabies. lol
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and perfect words.
Love the fishing boat leaving the harbor and little ArtMuseDog posing for you! We are supposed to get a wintery mix here tonight and tomorrow. Will spring ever come?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful place and mosaic!
ReplyDeleteHave a great new week.
Love your pictures. You're very good at this photography stuff.
ReplyDeleteLove the canine too. I was once owned by an adorable Bichon Frise - still miss her, although she's long since left my life, and this mortal coil too.
Re Creativity: I never see myself as particularly creative. I just enjoy blogging, that's all.
Have a good week
Your pictures are always bright and colorful !!!
ReplyDeletePretty shots of the Harbor and fishing boats. And the sunrise is beautiful. ArtMuse dog is looking very cute, as usual! Lovely post, have a happy week!
ReplyDeleteThe fishing boats always intrigue me. With all those lines a great joy for a photographer to capture...you did a great job.
ReplyDeleteThe sunrise is amazing with the sun peeking thru the cloud. Hope you get some springlike conditions soon!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely aqua colour the water is in the harbour - I love old fishing boats, they are so full of character!
ReplyDeleteYour little dog is just the cutest too!
Love seeing the fishing boat....reminds me of The Perfect Storm! ;) ArtMuse Dog is so adorable! Lovely site you have! :)
ReplyDeleteArtMuseDog is even cuter than I thought...like that's even possible!
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos and a fantastic Haiku. So beautiful !
ReplyDeleteThe dance sounds like a lot of fun! I like to take walks in the woods to exercise body and spirit. I always feel so revived afterwards.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of ArtMuse Dog! Such a cutie as always :)
sigh....I do love me some great eye candy! Thanks for sharing these sweet treats!

Everything looks so pretty and filled with sunlight. Wintry mix...It's hard to believe but it is rather chilly out. I find that walking about town and the beach keeps me energized, at peace, and filled with awe at the beauty around me. Even when it's cold...just makes it all the nicer to come home.
ReplyDeleteHey we got a wintry mix today too! UGH!
ReplyDeleteThat sailboat does look sweet ( and warm, and summery, and NOT Wintery Mixed at all ) :)
All your photos are great Carol, I particularly like the ones for Mosaic Monday, fishing boats and seabirds are great subjects.
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog!

I love the quote. It's such good advice.
ReplyDeleteSuch a cheerful post Carol. ArtMuse dog is cute. Have a lovely and creative week!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful doggy and fishing boat!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful fishing boat and doggy!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos Carol. I like the water colours of the mosaic. Thank you for visiting and leaving your kind comment. Pamela
ReplyDeleteCape Ann is a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos! It is almost spring; we are heading for warmer days and lesser clothes. I look forward to that. Maybe I will find energy to take some walks, then. (I am forced to take anti-psychotic medicines so I am very weak.) My answer to your question is "writing poetry". I know there is not much physical challenge in that. But there is a lot of mental challenge in that. And joy. Thank you Lord! And when I get comments on my poems like the one you just gave I feel fantastic. Thank you! :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful sets of photos. Sure seems a good place to be at. Nicely Carol!
ReplyDeleteHank
Pity the poor seagull, not knowing where to find the savory treat!

ReplyDeletelovely haiku and the photos are just amazing!
ReplyDeleteI hope the seagulls will find their field of green barley. Awesome haiku Carol intwined through all those wonderful photo's. Thank you for your every day effort to post here on Carpe Diem.
ReplyDeleteSailboats sometimes sail on our lakes, but hard to see the beautiful ones here. I definately need to go on vacation and see some like the one you have. The water and color of the sail are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAnn
Beautiful maritime photos, and as always, your haikus are sweet. Have a lovely day. :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos Carol! Yoga is a favorite of mine too, I just love stretching and breathing, wonderful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots and I hope spring reaches you soon. We're having spring weather where I live but I noticed in the extended forecast that we might get a little snow next week. Carver, ABC Wed. Team

Always a lovely collection of images and verse you give us! Enjoy seeing the fishing activities there, being retired from the sea.
ReplyDeletefabulous sunrise!
ReplyDeleteI love these boats on the harbour. I went down to our harbour yesterday and photographed boats too in my lunchtime. and sort of wished I was sailing off somewhere.
ReplyDeleteWe here are starting our first days of autumn.
Have a wonderful week and thank you for stopping by my blog today.
A new to-me word - jib. And it's a pretty blue sail boat.
ReplyDeleteMy husband is a gr8 fan of haikus!
ReplyDeleteI like the cut of your Jib!
ReplyDeleteI always wanted to say that and this was my chance, thanks!
It's always so calming to come here for a visit. And Art Muse Dog makes my heart melt. Those eyes!
