HAPPY NEW YEAR to ALL of you!

A Collage of "My Best of 2010" - these are photographs I like the most, photographs that others liked very much too, photographs that were favorites for so many of you and last but not least: photographs I have sold in 2010. It was a good year in photography for me and I'm very thankful for that!

It's time to say THANK YOU to all of you for all your visits and your wonderful comments and compliments in 2010. I would love to see you coming back next year to my humbled blog again. 

I will reduce my posting to maybe max. 3 times a week, because I want to learn something new in IM and I have a very good teacher at my side, an known old Guru and Master in IM business :)) I just hope he will have enough patience with his sometimes inpatient student....*smile*....

Well, then.....HAPPY NEW YEAR my friends!!!

May all your personal wishes come true and may the people finally learn to keep PEACE on this Earth.

See you next year!

~Susanne

HAPPY BIRTHDAY from my heart to yours, I love you!

Hi my friends,

Christmas is over - I hope you all had a good time celebrating. The old year is ending soon and a new one will come and hopefully bringing us only good things! Thank you for all your wonderful comments I got from you in 2010. 

I think next year I will change my blogging pattern a little bit - sometimes is doing less more effective and productive in the end and after blogging for 4 years... almost everything was told already..... I have also some other projects going on and I want to be focused more on them.

But this shouldn't stop you from visiting further my blog, o.k.? ....*smile*.... 

Have a wonderful after Christmas time!

~Susanne

Any Material Thing....

 

Any so-called material thing that you want is merely a symbol: you want it not for itself, but because it will content your spirit for the moment.

~Mark Twain~ 

Hi my friends,

It's Christmas Day! I hope you got all your wishes nice wrapped as a gift :))

It's a wonderful lovely day in FL - a good reason to take a walk at the beach.

Have a wonderful Day of Christmas!

The Day before Christmas

The Day Before Christmas

'Tis the day before Christmas, and all through the house
The puppies are squeaking an old rubber mouse.
The wreath which had merrily hung on the door
Is scattered in pieces all over the floor
.

The stockings that hung in a neat little row,
Now boast a hole in each one of the toes.
The tree was subjected to bright-eyed whims,
And now, although splendid, it's missing some limbs.

I catch them and hold them, be good I insist.
They lick me, then run off to see what they've missed.
And now as I watch them, the thought comes to me,
That theirs is the spirit that Christmas should be.

Should Children and Puppies yet show us the way,
And teach us the joy that should come with this day?
Could they bring the message that's written above,
And tell us that, most of all, Christmas is love!

Are you all excited....???? :))

Have a wonderful pre-Christmas day - and thanks for all the nice comments!

Unlighted candles...

Unshared joy is an unlighted candle.

~Spanish Proverb~

Hi my friends,

I like this quote! The candles was sent to me as a nice gift from Marina, my good friend in Germany. Thank you Marina, do you see how beautiful your candles look? :))

Christmas will be here pretty soon. I'm sure, a lot of the kids cannot wait to see their gifts. These are the days I love to remember my own childhood time when I was also waiting impatiently to open that last door with the magic number 24 on my Advent Calendar and then finally could see that big and beautiful decorated Christmas tree with all the - real - candles burning! It was always a BIG moment in my life - and a big joy! All these thoughts are bringing back only good and sweet memories to me.

I wish you a lot of good memories too!
~Susanne



There are still some CALENDARS 2011 left and it's never to late to give an artful gift!

Hi my friends,

I have to say THANK YOU for all the kind comments to my post one day ago. I appreciate every single one. I want also say thanks for your loyalty to my blog over the year and in the last 4 years, since I'm now blogging. I have enjoyed your friendship very much. I loved to see new faces visiting and of course, I'm sad about those who never came back again. But that's how life works. People come and people go - that's fine with me. :))

This photo above is connected to the Christmas spirit what we all are in in these days, some of us are more involved, some of us less. And Christmas is coming fast... every years it seems for me, Christmas was just yesterday :))

I wish you all a great time and stay warm. It's warming up again in Florida, finally!!! yeah....!
Have a wonderful Friday and a great coming weekend.
~Susanne

Ask yourself....

Captured in Silver City, New Mexico

Ask yourself whether the dream of heaven and greatness should be waiting for us in our graves - or whether it should be ours here and now and on this earth.
Ayn Rand

Hi my friends,
I hope you all stay warm and protected from the cold temperatures we have just now! Yesterday I wore the first time my winter coat and the warm closed shoes - no flip-flops anymore :)) But, for weekend it should be warmer again, the weather man says that - I hope he will be right!

I know, Christmas is just around the corner - kids can barely wait and we adults have still so much to do, we are busy like crazy with running around for the right gift. Take some time in between your rushes to relax, enjoy good music or read that book you've always wanted to read. Well.. o.k. I sound like a life coach now... I will stop my preaching... You know the best, what's good for you, right? :))

Happy Holidays.

Hoodoo Heaven” at Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah (USA)

Heather:   A couple of years ago, I took my three kids to southern Utah for a week of hiking and adventure.  Our biggest luxuries lay in the challenges, the stunning views and the freshwater we carried on our backs.  Below, I’ve posted a photo from Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah where a sudden hail storm turned a simple hike amongst the hoodoos into quite an adventure!  To read more about our experience, click the link below.

…One’s imagination can run a little wild amongst hoodoos, and each visitor’s unique vision seems to personalize the Bryce experience. My vivid childhood memories of spired castles rising above pink, red and orange people brought me back -with my own children this time. Intermittent rumbling soon lent a deeper hue to the sky as we hiked the Queen’s Garden and Navajo Trails. Eventually, I shoved the camera into our dry bag, and we raced for cover from a pelting storm!
