Welcome back I asked Mia to switch weeks with me since I will be out of town next weekend. I thought we would do a Pot Luck theme this week. My shot was taken this past Thursday in Pittsburgh PA. I am always fascinated by ivy on buildings and especially on windows. This was the apartment building next to my son's about 1/2 the windows were covered completely. I would have loved to seen the light filtering into the windows from the other side. I however didn't have the nerve to knock and ask. The quote I chose was from Lady Bird Johnson and has always been a favorite of mine.
The Rules:
Each week we will post an original photo with words on it. The idea behind this group is to expand our minds through our photography.
Photos must be your own, but the words can be someone else's as long as credit is given after the words.
Your post can either be serious, or if you'd like comical, but never obscene .
Posts can either have one word on them,quotes, or full poems ... Your choice.
All posts are to be done on your own site in a blog form with a link back to it being left here.
New topics will be posted on Sundays.
Posts can be made through Saturday.
One post per person only please.
I originally hail from Mass. Ivy covered buildings were common and so beautiful. I certainly understand your attraction. This has taken me back a few decades in memory......simply stunning, Joel!!
ReplyDeleteand eerie image Joel..I too love ivy covered buildings...
