Weekly Photo Challenge: HOPE
This weeks subject is suggested by Marycarimom
The subject is Hope
Another difficult subject to relate my photography to as the subject is not tangible but is instead
a DREAM, a WISH, a DESIRE, or ASPIRATION
Hope has a softness about it, A HOLY SOFTNESS, as it intones a religious quality that attempts leading towards better or more satisfying than the general / harsh struggle of everyday life.
My interpretation of hope:
True hope has everything to do with religious faith. WITHOUT HOPE, there is no everlasting life and
WITH HOPE there are DREAMS of a KINDER / BETTER / MORE BEAUTIFUL, Hereafter. None of us can know what the hereafter really is but we can imagine.
I imagine ”Hope” using my photos
I hope there are beautiful clouds and silhouettes
of trees to peek thru
for continued photo taking.
I hope the riverbanks my husband enjoys are always a part of the landscape.
I hope flowers remain as exotic and beautiful as they are now.
I hope beautiful places to see and visit continue
as a part of whatever it is that life becomes.
This is my granddaughter in my sister’s apple tree, enough years ago she doesn’t like this photo. It’s one of my favorites. I hope there are always plenty of trees for children to play in, just like this.
I have a lot of hopes. I would love to see some of my major hopes in the, here, now. Until a time I can make deliberate changes to everything around me for the better, I will feed my hopes, with even more.
I hope everyone has beautiful hopes and dreams.
Thank you to every visitor for all the kind comments on any of my posts. I appreciate all of them. I should probably visit and thank each individual but I am fortunate to be keeping up with seeing each of your posts as we get each new challenge.
Keep taking those photos,

Fantastic. I love the color and how things blend in. You really have to look to see some things.
