Images & Words #77-HOMAGE

Hi there all Images & Words friends!

 Mia here this time and I have chosen the
theme "HOMAGE" for this week. (deference, respect - a courteous expression (by word or deed) of esteem or regard; )

So I'm paying homage to all cows with this image. Without cows we would have no milk, youghurt, cheese, cream etc etc. Some of them don't seem to lead very happy lives, the one in my image sure has, but doesn't look like it lol..

My picture consists of four layers, one of a country landscape, another of a picture of our neighbour's cow, two layers of texture and then the text.






All in all it's just another
 brick in the wall

So, please show me whatever you want to honor or pay homage to and have fun with it, that's the most important... Can't wait to see what you've got!

Cheers
Mia


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.

  3. What an incredible piece of art you have created. Well deserving of a mat and a frame, don't you think?

  9. there have been major issues plaguing many Multiply subscribers for the past day or two. Apparently these "ISSUES" are felt by those of us on a particular server....but it continues to grow. You would think that since the site's performance issues expand as we speak, a staff member would address our concerns? ( not at this time!! )
