postcards from paradise

 

find a slice of beauty

offer it in a photograph, two, three...more.

  no words, or a thousand, you will know

if one fleeting moment will suffice.

 

follow your passion, drink deeply

simple beauty....sacred ordinary

diamonds at the soles of your feet

postcards from paradise

a chance to gather snippets of heaven and earth

share a visual feast

of your world up close and personal

a chance to visit others offerings and

 leave a word of kindness at every stop,   

to walk a world labyrinth 

in the art of seeing.

sign in with your postcards from paradise link

 

please write

 recuerda mi corazon 

on your post and link it to postcards

so more can join us

in our beauty quest.

Oops....well this was my Stumbling Towards Ecstasy post, but perhaps it will fit in with postcards from paradise! ; )

I like the reverse perspective! Everyone seems more natural.
Love the colorful mosaic--reminds me of Gaudi's La Sagrada Familia in Barcelona. Have a wonderful Sunday!

The opportunity to see the eye of the beholder, beholding is rare indeed. There is a quote that I am now paraphrasing that tells us that more than paintings, sculpture or any other medium the photograph carries with it a trace of the original subject. I like that perspective alot, especially when I look at photos here of such good friends. Thank you Rebecca for a lovely post.
Xoxo

Through our eyes...captured by yours!

You've gathered these lovely postcards together, like we could reach out and touch.

Thanks, Rebecca. I'll participate, but have overnight company so it might be tomorrow before I post. I love your invitation to have a bird's eye view of life.

oh Rebecca, you have really touched my heart strings here, as my passion for photography continues to grow and blossom every day. I love every single shot here, especially since I know so many of us gathered here...now I am going to write my own postcard..

What would we do without cameras in our quest for beauty?

i recognize some of those faces from blogland and how fun to see all the sweet self shots...i'm still a bit shy about self shots...but my boy's hand and butterfly are posted for you, dear rebecca

[Noelle]

Hi Rebecca dear,
I reposted an older blogpost of Meena and candle. I found that the earlier photo was distorted, not authorized and had another photo behind it. I found the photographer, got her permission and found information about her that is so lovely I wanted to share it so I am posting it again if anyone has an interest.
Love,
Noelle
