This Moment

"A single photo – no words – capturing a simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember."
“This Moment” is a ritual found on Life inspired by theWee Man adopted from SouleMama which was introduced to me by Sarah-Jane. If you find yourself touched by a Moment and would like to participate, post your picture on a Friday and leave your link in the comments section.

    Debra, this beautiful eye is what they should show art students when teaching them how to draw eyes! And look at those lashes! Lovely! :)

    Nice picture! I like that at first glance, it looks like just an eye, but looking deeper, there is much more detail in the clear shot - right down to the flecks of mascara.

      Jane, thank you! Now I have something to ponder this weekend, these powerful quotes you sent! Contemplating that first quote... and the 2nd, well, I think the eye sees more clearly in dreams because the ego is out of the way! You take care and have a restful weekend.

    Hi Debra

    Thanks for joining us for Friendship Friday! I just came from Kylee's blog, where you mentioned in her comments that you were also interested in adding a RSS feed to your blog. I left her a link which details how to set up a Feedburner RSS Feed on a Blogger blog - I thought you might find it beneficial too:

    http://theedublogger.com/2010/01/26/setting-up-feedburner-rss-and-email-subscription-for-your-blog/

    You can also add an email subscription to your blog using Feedburner!

    Have a great weekend!

    Hello Debra.
    The eyes have a story all to themselves & often reveal what the lips cannot/refuse to speak.
    Nice eye.
    Lovely capture!
    Thanks for sharing.
