Thinking pretty

I'm still trying to brighten up the place. Some flowers in a vase would be nice. MAybe I should have put these in the arty farty threads. Never mind.
These are for you, Maggie, just to brighten your day.

Tom, I'm awe-struck by the beauty you have placed here. I found 'Remembering' by Avishai Cohen on youtube and listened while I absorbed this true delight. It's late here, almost midnight, but this will brighten my day tomorrow and also my dreams tonight. We don't have these flowers here and your photos of them are not only gorgeous and sensual; they are magical and you are the magician. I'm so touched and near tears that you so generously thought about me.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a sweet and kind sentiment. I know you've told me Christine is the best thing in your life, obviously she's also got someone very special in hers.

and more 'pretty' please! :)
with heartfelt thanks,
Maggie
 
Just came back to see if I was dreaming that I saw this just before bedtime last night, and yep, it was for real!
thanks again,
Maggie

Had to go get a roll of paper towels real quick. The colors were dripping right out of the monitor onto the desk.

Careful, Jim, it stains. I've got pollen stains all over my backdrop and I noticed this morning the purple has stained on of my shirts.

todays efforts are a little less intense. Thanks for dropping by, all of you. It gets lonely here in the dungeon.
 
Bright and colorful and very cheerful. The red one almost looks like a fig but with the surprise of holding a flower within its belly! A real treasure.

As for the pollen stains, argh, I've had that experience with tulip pollen. Really stains.
and you've got to leave the dungeon more often.
:)
