This week’s Shared Focus topic is “Hanging Out”. Hop over here and see what both Martie and I came up with. It’s funny how it never goes in quite the direction I think it’s going to, but it’s always fun!
I'm so glad you stopped by,
Play well and be kind to one another.

What’s that you say…? This doesn’t look very risky to you? Well, head on over here and see how two fairly mature women (in both years and experience!) look at what “living on the edge” means to them!
This week’s Shared Focus topic was “reflection” so head on over here to see what we both came up with as a visual response, as well as our thoughts on the topic ! This photograph was taken while I was sitting on a wharf having brunch last weekend. The different shades of blue’s caught my eye…everything from turquoise and baby blue to dark marine blue.
There’s so much going on in my life…and yet I feel I have so little to say. Does anyone else find themselves in this situation? My thoughts feel like they won’t all fit into this small space…they don’t fit into small information “bytes”. No, there’s no life changing or life altering events happening…I just don’t know how to put these thoughts down in print. Maybe they feel too precious or too personal. Or maybe they wouldn’t be understood. Or maybe I haven’t yet found the right words. I’m feeling very happy and peaceful but also as though I’m in limbo…neither here nor there, I’m in an odd state of suspended animation. As a result, I sit here to write but the words that come out seem not to be my words or at least not to reflect what I’m really thinking and feeling. I’d be interested to know if any of you are having or have ever had, this experience.
So yes, much of what’s going on for me these days is internal. There’s an edge of excitement and anticipation that I’ve crossed a major threshold and am now waiting for new direction or insight, to know where this new path will take me.
“Reflection” was such an appropriate word for me to focus on this week!
Play well and be kind to one another,
This is a great moment, when you see, however distant, the goal of your wandering. The thing which has been living in your imagination suddenly become part of the tangible world. It matters not how many ranges, rivers or parching dusty ways may lie between you; it is yours now, for ever.”

I’m very excited about a new project that I’m involved in…a photography collaboration called Shared Focus. Although we’ve never met in person, my fellow collaborator… Martie (So Many Roads) and I have “known” each other for three years via blogging. We share a common interest passion for photography and although our styles differ (I tend to digitally manipulate to excess!), we decided that a challenge was just what we needed to step outside the box and begin focusing our lenses with new eyes. Check out our new home for this project at Shared Focus and our first collaboration, where the topic this week is “wandering”.
This post is also a contribution to Sunday Citar which is hosted by Tabitha at Fresh Mommy.
