This is the seventh "chapter" of the Echo (Word) Challenge which
Susan Tuttle of Ilka's Attic (blog)
and her friend Chrysti of Art by Chrysti
have been running for a number of months now.
They put out a WORD prompt (twice a month), and the key is to interpret the
word through the camera lens, the current word prompt is WHISPER.
As with most word prompts, especially the more "abstract ones" the mind runs
amock with ideas!!! My initial thoughts were - a flowing river, trees swaying in
the breeze, snowy scenes (which for me would be VERY difficult!!),
a literal whisper(mouth to ear)...
I eventually settled on a misty morning - mainly because to catch mist you have to
get up very early - when all is still, no noise, no wind, just the odd bird ..... and maybe
the whisper of a gentle breeze.

For the second image, I decided on a "fragile" looking flower/ plant - the flowers buds
of the nandina (Sacred Bamboo) - which are small and delicate - they are there,
just there, not too obivous, preparing for the berries that come in autumn.
By it's very nature the Sacred Bamboo (as it's commonly known) is also a very
serene, calm plant which fits the prompt of Whisper perfectly.

I've decided to move the challenge to Thinking Aloud, since after all
this is where my photography and creative images are - a fitting place
to display them.

just amazing!!! Thank you for participating:)
Lovely photos, I love the part about the mist and quietness, that is so true! I think that is one reason why I love the mountains so much.
I found an article that cleared up a lot of my unaswered questions about LOST. Read this and let me know what you think?
Loved the photos. Can't blame the girlies for not lovin' strawberries and cream... mmmmm!
