...like leaves on the wind...


she seemed to move everywhere
dancing
and music followed her 
like leaves on the wind.

  3. That is always a delicate flower, an exquisite and fine lace that enhances the landscape by offering a canopy of delicate shade to fall upon the land. Beautiful!

  11. I love Queen Anne's lace (and that is what I call it too). The one in the foreground appears to be indigo, but I know it's the color casting effect and the shadow. Oh, so cool!
