Photo Challenge by SYLVAIN LANDRY
A response to Sylvain’s challenge theme of Orange

“An orange on the table, your dress on the rug, and you in my bed, sweet present of the present, cool of night, warmth of my life” Jacques Prevert

The gorgeous sunrises and sunsets surrounded by orange halos, were shot on the beautiful sunny island of Rhodes, Greece.

Those of you snapping pix, know this to be a tedious task, since to be honest, they are all favourites of the moments they were taken, why else would you have shot them in the first place, right? Trying to limit to just one or two photos is difficult for any post, but trying my best here from the several thousand photos shot and posted during 2015 😉

For this weeks Favourite Photo Friday posts, I have decided to walk through 2015 and choose a few of my most favourite ones during the coming weeks. Hope you enjoy the walk down memory lane 2015 in photographs!
For this last post in the 2015 photo break down, I have chosen a set of my favourite sky shots.

In the first post, the skies over Tuusula Lake in Finland.

Enjoy!

The cup
Is always
Half full
The liquid
May run out
For a time
But sooner
And not later
It will be
Filled up
Again

Winter?
So what!
I don’t care!
I am feeling
Quite optimistic
Riding my bike
Sitting on a bench
So what if it snows
It’s almost June!

And soon it will be time
To unwind

Sunshine on a winter’s day
The nature’s showing a halo
The cold and snow to fade
And soon, it will be May
