The Monday Bouquet: December 22
My favorite complementary colors, yellow and violet, make today’s Monday Bouquet the
perfect way to send Complements of the Season to one and all.
Happy Holidays everyone 🙂
Golden Yellow
This collage featuring Olga Korbet, the golden girl of the ’72 and ’76 Olympic Games, will be familiar to those of you who follow my Monday Bouquet.
Her never-to-be forgotten gold medal performances and a smile that is as heart warming and magical today as I remember it in 1972 are worth re-visiting in this official YouTube video from the International Olympic Committee: http://youtu.be/c2NGqI6FqeQ
For Krista’s Photo Challenge: Yellow, and Ailsa’s Travel Theme: Golden

Photography 101: Glass – Incorporate glass in today’s image: a window, a mirror, a wine glass, sunglasses, or something else. It doesn’t matter what form the glass takes.
We brought this beautiful glass sculpture back from Prague some years ago. I hope you agree its perfect for Cheri’s Photography 101 task today.

Photography 101: Solitude – Capture a snapshot that conveys the state of being alone.
Cairns built by unknown hands high on the Lakeview Mountain Trail in British Columbia’s Cathedral Provincial Park, all show you the way home. When the mist comes up they are a welcome sight to the traveller suddenly very much alone in the solitude of the mountain.
This painting was first a photograph and is now a photograph of a painting. I hope this legitimizes its inclusion in Photography 101. I will await the reprimand.Palette Cleanser
Photography 101: Water – We want to see your interpretation of water — how might your image reveal more about you?
Water, the essential element in the life of the studio.
And so you have the story behind the name of my blog “revealed”…
If you have a few moments listen to the Lentement from Handel’s Water Music played by Jordi Savall and Le Concert Des Nations, and enjoy a few changing palettes as you do so.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Cover Art
For this week’s Photo Challenge, Pete Rosos invited us to stimulate our creative processes and imagine which of our images we would like to see gracing the cover of a book. Those of you who have followed my blog will be familiar with the bookshelf, and a feint image of the painting on the book cover was seen in one of my Monday bouquets. This week I wondered how it might look on the cover of a retrospective catalogue from an imagined exhibition at the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Nothing like thinking big… even though it’s pure fantasy!
