Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: It’s All About Nature

For me nature is usually in many colors and it would be easy to show just one photo.

However, it is different in black and white. So I decided to show several photos. .

I don't like you anymore!

Below are three photos of houses in Pocono Manor. The first two are on the opposite sites of the Manor Drive (it is very narrow there). The third photo is a view from the golf course.

Short walk

It was raining very hard and I opened a window to enjoy sights and smells.

A man and a dog went out from our building and turned left.

I thought: “Why were they going for a walk in such weather?”

I grabbed my camera and was ready to make a shot when they pass a huge bush on their way left.

However, suddenly they appeared before me.

Both were smiling!

A beautiful country!

A beautiful girl whom I love very much (Renee B.) made three photos below.

Please describe what you see on each photo, what you feel and let us know what  country it is.

It is sunny and warm in Pocono Manor today and I spent this morning taking pictures. You will see them soon (it is not a threat).

Enjoy life! It’s a gift!

From a book “Irish Blessings”.

When this blog just started I published a post “I am not Irish”. You can read it HERE.

I mentioned in the post that years ago during an Irish Festival in Pocono Manor I bought a book “Irish Blessings” (1983, Random House) and I shared three blessings with my readers.

It is spring and very soon I am going to Pocono Manor again. Today I want to share with you two more Irish Blessings.

*******************************************************************************************

May brooks and trees 

And singing hills

Join in the chorus too,

And every gentle wind that blows

Send happiness to you.

*******************************************************************************************

Lucky stars above you,

Sunshine on your way,

Many friends to love you,

Joy in work and play.

Laughter to outweigh each care,

In your heart a song

And gladness waiting everywhere

All your whole life long!

Rainy day. Park Debreuil, Melun.
