It is reputed to have immense magical deftness, chiefly the power to heal the sick and strike terror in the hearts of…

The Flower Hour #31: Lilac is more than a flower…
My trusty friend, The OED, tells me that the colour “lilac” is a moderate to pale grayish-purple or a light purplish-pink. With apologies to Terri, our Lilacs have finished here in southern Ontario, and the only Lupins I know of are in the Monty Python sketch “Dennis Moore” — “Give me all your Lupins!” —…

The Grackle⭑ The grackle’s voice is less than mellow,His heart is black, his eye is yellow,He bullies more attractive birdsWith hoodlum deeds and vulgar words,And should a human interfere,Attacks that human in the rear.I cannot help but deem the grackleAn ornithological debacle. ‘Til next time, y’all… ⭑Ogden Nash from his 1942 anthology “Good Intentions”.

The Flower Hour #30: A Wealth of Lilacs
A wealth of lilacs have I here,Their mystic whispers stir my ear.Their lovely fragrance fills my heart,As memories their blooms impart.* Lilacs are synonymous with home for me. My dad planted a row along the two sides and back of our yard to make a privacy hedge, and, this time every year, their fragrance was…

Lens Artist Challenge #397: Texture — Touch Comes Before Sight*
Lens Artist Challenge #397: Texture This week Anne is inspiring us with this challenge: How do we make our two-dimensional medium feel like three-dimensions? Texture, however, gives us the visual quality of a surface — how rough, smooth, gritty, or soft it appears in a two-dimensional image. Show us your images where texture plays an integral part. Texture…

There were many positives and, truly, the negatives have been minimal and manageable. But there are hiccups, and today was a very minor one of those.…
