ReplyDeleteWe never know whether a white patch was purely white frm d beginning or has gone through a lot of black spots before... But what matters is the present... so white it is!

I think I will pass on this desolated picnic space, thank you. A little too icy for my blood!

That "left barren, white space" image could work for many things; I like it. And that photo is amazing.

ReplyDeleteThis has a very melancholy feel to it. Lovely, yet sad.
