In Contrast…For Lens Artists Challenge

Contrast

Sun or moon and smooth or rough,
old or young and clothed or buff––
opposites contrast each other––
tough or easy, breathe or smother.
Shadows can be made with light,
though sun is opposite of night.
Sarcasm depends on this:
words that praise, but really diss.
Life consists of contrasts that
give yin for yang and tit for tat.
If you can’t find a life to fit,
just change into its opposite!
Reach for the hidden, release the found.
Contrasts make the world go round.

Progress Report: The State of the Spare Lot: On Display Before and After

42 Replies
The state of the lot in July, 2021.
First the five-foot high undergrowth had to be dealt with.
Then the ground leveled and boulders and 20 years of refuse from surrounding construction projects cleared.
And some of the areas are a bit overgrown again.
as does the ornamental grass.
The aloes are thriving.

Isolation for a year during Covid gave me more hammock time and more time to peruse the lot below me that I had bought tens year before. It had been a dumping spot for the entire neighborhood for years, and although I had tried to clear out the ten-foot high castor bean plants and other weeds once a year, I suddenly developed a yen to do more. This is the result so far!

Squeals of glee
free!
Why do the edges of our wounds so often want to heal into the shape of hearts?
The edge of one thing is always the beginning of something else.
There’s something
about an edge
that cats are attracted to, too.

The oldest couple ever to file for a marriage license in Texas. At 91, he married an older woman! They lived a block away from me and were two of my favorite people.
