Month: June 2012

Fire starter

June 19, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 15 Comments

A cloud of blue-grey ash hung around her, a dark aura of melancholy she carried with her everywhere. It was difficult to tell her age, her face hidden under layers of soot and grit. Still, you were gripped by how clear her eyes were, as deep and cloudless as azure summer skies. The villagers would … Continue reading Fire starter

Uplifting

June 18, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 7 Comments

He lay on his side, one leg bent and the other straight out to balance his body. She rubbed her hands together to warm them before touching bare skin. Bracing her thighs against the table edge, she ran her fingertips along the stiff ridge until she found the right spot. Then, she pulled... hard. Her … Continue reading Uplifting

Disabled list

June 16, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 17 Comments

This is probably the first time I have not gone on a dedicated weekend photo hike in... I actually don't remember the last time. I've been on the Disabled List for a few weeks with a bum foot, but it didn't stop my hikes, only slowed me down. I finally gave in and started physical … Continue reading Disabled list

Maybe I should once again attempt weekly themes, just to change things up a bit. The reflection photo was featured on "Fading away." That delicious looking … Continue reading Week 23: atmospherical phenomenon

An Anniversary of some significance

June 14, 2012January 7, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 9 Comments

Today is my 26th wedding anniversary. About two weeks ago, the Mister and I also marked the anniversary of our first date. We don't agree on when that actually was. I say it was June 3, 1983. He insists it was June 1. At this point, it doesn't really matter, except for claiming 'I'm right' … Continue reading An Anniversary of some significance
