Images & Words 55 ~ Pot Luck

Thanks Joel for the freedom this week to choose our own Images and Words theme.

I have chosen a quote by

Ralph Waldo Emerson & placed it with a favourite photo of mine. This sunset scene taken last year on the river bank, beside a tall arching willow tree, holds many fond memories for me.

Ralph Waldo Emerson's quotes usually hit the mark for me as well.

I hope that you Enjoy!

    Very nice, Milli! The sunset through the willow branches and the golden sunlight on the water is captivating. The dark silhouette of the branches frame the photo so perfectly.


    I love Emerson!
