How the people are busting out towards the frame)<br /><br />What I like about the first picture- that really struck me from the start- is how the one person is lined up with the tree trunk making the whole tree and all the petals look like one mass floating shape- like an art installation done by Nature!abigailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11365543083903324972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777454663138389757.post-71057383436318063762009-04-16T18:36:00.000-04:002009-04-16T18:36:00.000-04:00an entire year?!?!? ...they're so fabulous!an entire year?!?!? ...they're so fabulous!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15540367324651819913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777454663138389757.post-67473537965724261332009-04-16T03:57:00.000-04:002009-04-16T03:57:00.000-04:00Hiya- I was thinking you might like cherry blossom...Hiya- I was thinking you might like cherry blossom imagery and then- of coarse, lovely cherry blossom post.

At least that's what it reminds me of.

I love reading your posts, and I often read your blog as inspiration. I love the randomness of it all, and how you truly write about what interests you. You've really introduced me to some great things I wouldn't have otherwise known about.<br /><br /> I was wondering what blogs/websites do you visit regularly to inspire you?<br /><br />Thank you!<br /><br />LucyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5777454663138389757.post-57070099237017945402009-04-14T11:27:00.000-04:002009-04-14T11:27:00.000-04:00Ditto.

And I love the woman in red pants who is so clearly enjoying the moment. The central action of the woman and her models is only enhanced by this wider context.
