31. Water


A nice open-ended prompt for you this week!

I had so many ideas running through my head but after thinking of this topic for a while I couldn't get away from the idea of water being life-giving and ever-present. I also kept thinking of how thankful I am for it - in all ways as it gives physical, emotional and spiritual life.

My writing on the back reflects these ideas. On the front I incorporated a picture I took of the Thames while walking beside this wonderful river from its source to Windsor. I wanted to use this particular image as the water in the Thames is flowing well providing physical needs, the church in the background with its spire pointing heavenwards represents the spiritual, and one can only respond emotionally to the beautiful river itself.

I photographed my card propped up against some lilies - life-giving water again - and although it came out a little odd in the upper right corner, it gives you an idea.

P.S. I've put my 'flora' and 'in a nutshell' images at the appropriate places. Anyone else's are very welcome.
