A Photographer...Before Her Time


























I was blog hopping the other night and came across someone's blog that had several pictures of Julia Margeret Cameron, British Photographer (1815-1879) on it. I was SO enthralled by the sheer beauty of one peticular piece labeled, The Kiss of Peace (The mother-daughter one). To me, it is absolutely beautiful. If you want to see more of her work, here's the website that shows all of her work.
It's been pretty brisk around here. Plenty of stopped up pottys and such...Bring it on!
And the weather is...crazy again. Warm, cold...warm, cold!!! I really am glad to see warmer weather, but people around here are getting sick. Fever, chills...stopped up noses. Where is Spring!!! LOL... Well guess I'll quit straining your eyes for a while. Have a happy day and smile a whole bunch!
