Oh how I long for the twist and turns of the desert spring. I am tired of cold, tired of dry & drought and I long and wait for the blossom that may well be very slow to come this year. Good things come to those who wait and so I wait.
“Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.” Isaiah 40:31
Wait with patience for the change of season on your journey†nada te turbe†jim

Indoor work??, love this image, how did you make, care to share your secrets? 🙂 MJ
MJ…….it was outside, available light image. I think the original was made with a lens baby as it was the only macro lens I had at the time.
I don’t believe in secrets, it is an easy fun effect. Here is the link to the recipe.
