Description
The kiss of the sun for pardon,
The song of the birds for mirth,
One is nearer God's Heart in a garden
Than anywhere else on earth.
~ Dorothy F. Gurney
Not really my grandmother's garden .. but it could be ... or it could be yours :))) ....
♥ Heartfelt Gratitude to All The Roses for featuring this image

Beautiful image Connie, very simple but very effective ! I feel as if I can almost smell the flowers.

Beautifully nostalgic. My grandma had blue Hydrangeas along her walk and since it always rains on the coast, we would get wet brushing past them every time we visited her. Love your processing on this one - so creative. f/l
Connie Handscomb replied:
Late late thanks, Theresa .. {I remember the wet bushes, too! .. & as a child.. they were 'wetter than wet'! } :)))

Ohhh... looking at the icon I was sure that I am going to see an organ...Well...the music plays in my mind,,,but still ..the flowers on top of this kind of a mono-chromatic background is stunning.!! Fantastic work Connie!
