A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

Have you ever stopped to ponder on that phrase "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words".  I've been thinking about these words and envisioning photos or artwork that have engaged my attention, augmented my mood, evoked an emotion (laughter is my favorite!), reminded me of a person, place or event, or just moved and motivated me in some way.

I've most recently enjoyed browsing photographs and such while I pursue interests and passions.  Trends, whether decorating, taking action, or some other venue cause me to come across some of the most amazing photographs - and videos as well.

What are your favorite images?

Mine are that of my grandson - especially viewing his smiles, dancing and talking, revealing his precious personality that is his uniqueness alone.  Ah, the love of a grandmother.

And then there are those photos, especially of military protecting our country, that often bring tears and much appreciation and gratitude ...

Take France, for instance.  Some images just stop me in my tracks, per se.  If you haven't gathered my color preference yet, it is - PINK - everything is PRETTIER IN PINK - and according to my grandmother and I "what other color is there".  There have been many French related photos with lots & lots of pink colors that make me breathe in with comfort and say ahhhhhhhhhh ...

Here are some recent French photos:that left a pleasant impression :

Ah ... pretty lilac fields - can you imagine the lovely fragrance surrounding you with every step?

Yes, a pink Parisian balcony please ...

Yes, a picture really is worth a thousand words.
