Memories. This is a brief sweep through time  to see a few of the flowers and gardens I love.

Simple everyday,  ordinary things.

 

A power failure.

A worn out hard drive. Time.

Malfunction in the backup systems.

 

And so, as it happened…all my photos were a bit like Humpty Dumpty.

No one can put them back together again.

I can say

I’m grateful to have made their acquaintance.

 

Those that remain,  on WordPress, I hold dear.

Those that are gone.

I let go.

A door closes.

But more open.

The act of creation, in any media is a fascinating and magical process. I simply love to create. Expressing in color, line, tone, texture - as if, they were words upon a page. Creating a uniquely me, interpretation. Enjoy More of my "one-of-a-kind" expressive art at society6.com/debiriley and, redbubble.com/people/debijriley/shop

  1. ((((((((((3d)))))))))) You’re a wonderful photographer (and gardener, apparently) and there will be more where those came from. These are beautiful, and all the more treasured now, I’m sure. Beautiful post. ❤

  4. In my view, i Will like to take it in a different direction. Both gardens oast and present are sweet not minding ones richness or level of poverty. You will become overwhelmed with joy or otherwise depending on how you use your garden. Your garden determines you r place of stay withe God(paradise/hell). So , take care of yours so as to apeace
