The weather this week has been gorgeous so I’ve been outdoors most of it. Unfortunately many of my pictures did not come out. Still struggling to get used to my new camera and lens. However, I did manage to get a few I was happy with.

Look at you, madman! Screaming you are thirsty and dying in a desert, when all around you there is nothing but water. ~Kabir

“We can talk,” said the Tiger-lily. “When there’s anybody worth talking to.” ~
Lewis Carroll

Jellicle cats come out tonight, Jellicle cats come one come all, the Jellicle moon is shining bright, Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball. ~T.S. Eliot
Jellicle Moon?

The man who has seen the rising moon break out of the clouds at midnight has been present like an archangel at the creation of light and of the world. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
Clouded

If we had a keen vision of all that is ordinary in human life, it would be like hearing the grass grow or the squirrel’s heart beat, and we should die of that roar which is the other side of silence. ~George Eliot
Nibbles

When I am happy, a sparrow’s chirp is delicious to me. But it is not the chirp that makes me happy, but I that make it sweet. ~John Ruskin
Perched

Every one is a moon, and has a dark side which he never shows to anybody. ~Mark Twain
Daytime Bright

Happiness is like a butterfly which, when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. ~Nathaniel Hawthorne
