Always find something beautiful here on your posts.
ReplyDeleteWorth a Thousand Words
Nature's creations are amazingly well expressed in subtle and very impressive aspects, like the icicles, shadows, the sea wall of different stones... And the haiku is so sensitive..."life is not written in stone"!! So beautiful water color sketch... As always, lots of aspects to admire in your post!*-* Many thanks!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week ahead!
what lovely photos-and to think you get to enjoy it all everyday:) Love your Sunday sketch!! Beautiful haiku and the quote at the top-wow-I had not heard that one before-very powerful! Have a great week Carol!
ReplyDeleteI really want to get my bare feet in that sand!
ReplyDeleteI like the sand and sky and water better than the icicle, even if the latter is more artistic. And tho the giraffe kite is creative and whimsical (and I usually enjoy whimsy), I think I like my kites more traditional, as in your pretty sketch. I
ReplyDeleteSky, sea, sun, and sand - what a great combination. Have a wonderful week ahead!
ReplyDeleteI'll show that kite to my hubby...he loves giraffes! How neat! Enjoy your week! Hugs, Diane
ReplyDeleteSun and sea and sky - how very lovely!
ReplyDeleteHello Carol!
ReplyDeleteLove the giraffe kite and your drawing od the girl flying a kite--such a spring time sighting! Do you ever find sea glass along the shore there? It must be fun to beach comb after a storm. Miss the sea!
Wonderful photos!
ReplyDeleteHello, beautiful images and scenery! I love the rock wall and trees. The view from the canon is cool. Cute kite! Your sketch is awesome. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your new week!
ReplyDeleteI wish we had weather that was nice enough to get out in and see what is happening in nature. It has been pretty nasty here and the days that are nice find me busy. I enjoyed your photos and sweet drawing. Enjoy the week.
ReplyDeletePam
You are so organized, Carole - all of your weekly links up and ready to go! I really enjoy seeing your photos - so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteNo matter how great some artists were, be or shall be...
ReplyDeleteNature is the greatest one ....as you've shown well
Have a nice abc-wednesday-day / – week

ReplyDeleteHeartfelt haiku. Love your sketch.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely photos . Especially the one with the N word.
ReplyDeleteI hope you and your little doggy are okay?

ReplyDeleteNatures creations by God always leave me in awe...
ReplyDeleteNice photos! That beach looks so tempting. The quote you chose to open the post is great too.

ReplyDeleteI love your shots for this week, the old cannon is a nice touch, Devonport's Mount Victoria in AUckland has ones similar, love it!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos,especially the second and last.
ReplyDeleteImpressive sea wall.....beautiful too!
Thank you - have a wonderful week,

The stone fence is very striking in black and white. Thanks so much for dropping by my creative writing blog!
ReplyDeleteWonderful phots, my favorite are the ones with the beach.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming to my blog http://areyouhere-areyouthere.blogspot.de/
All wonderful views in Cape ann this week Carol! I especially enjoyed the B&W shot of the sea wall and the tree shadow on the beach.
ReplyDeleteWishing you and Artmuse a very happy weekend!
well happy week to you too. Interesting posts for the week.
ReplyDeleteMB
Ilove the composition and different textures in th B & W image and the gorgeous beach shot in the follwoing shot
ReplyDeleteFirst time visiting here. Your photos are amazing! I love your Haiku, too. So beautifully written!
ReplyDeleteA beautiful blog, it has everything in it, cheers Carol.
ReplyDeletethat's a great sea wall...it will do a good job!! pretty capture of the ice in nature as well!!!
ReplyDeleteAlways a joy to visit you and your lovely photography! That kite is very unique. I love your sketch, also. Wishing you a very nice afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea that you have your cannon ready to defend your island if need be. Island dwellers have to learn to be self reliant. I see things are warming up but are still pretty cold probably. I love your kite and again I love your own art work.
ReplyDeleteCool Sea Wall, Beautiful beaches, lovely Haiku (you do them well) Fun kite and a nice drawing of the experience. Always a pleasure to stop in.
ReplyDeleteA great series of photos. The seawall looks like it will function well. Thanks for your visit!
ReplyDeletewhat a sweet drawing! love that stone wall!
ReplyDeleteI love that sea wall and the photo below it!
ReplyDeleteGreat shots.
ReplyDeleteSydney – City and Suburbs

ReplyDeleteI love your beach pics!
ReplyDelete~

ReplyDeletenice, but no more ice!

I wait for Friday each week just so I can tell you how I enjoy your post every day! You offer such treasures!! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed all of your photos. So beautiful! Especially the shadows on the beach is capturing my eyes.
ReplyDeleteNice to see you...with haiku !!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend !! xoxo
Marvelous explorations, beautiful bits of nature and a lovely sketch too.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing that remains the same is the constant changes.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about people coming and going. I have someone who used to be my friend, but she walked away, and despite my reaching out to her several times, she says she's decided to keep her distance. Such is life!
ReplyDeleteI would love to walk on your peaceful, serene beach. Here, our sugar sand beaches are beautiful, but lined with high rise condos and tourist gear. Sigh......Love that icy waterfall too.
ReplyDeleteHello Carol,
ReplyDeleteI always do love so much to come and visit you, I'm so delighted by every photograph of yours, they're a joy for the eyes and for the soul !
Hope you're having a lovely day, I'm sending blessings on your weekend,
with gratitude
Dany
I hope all is well with you and artmuse- nice shots, all! Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove that shot of the old canon!! Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteThat giraffe flag is strangely weird! Not sure I would walk it outside my office window!
ReplyDeleteCheers - Stewart M - Melbourne

Wonderful photos, as usual, Carol! I imagine the giraffe kite would have looked amazing in the air. Your lovely sketch was very apt!
ReplyDeleteHow are your eyes now? I hope the issue you were having has cleared up.
Your photographs, words and paintings always exude such peace. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteI like the whimsical quality of your kite sketch. And I like how you include the little dog in a lot of the sketches.
ReplyDeleteIs it wrong of me to make this confession? (I hope not.) I'm glad that some people have gone from my life!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the old cannon and the ice and the beach. Thank you for taking us with you on your walk!
