Loyal
The Call: A Ghost of Myself — Jessica
To carry on with our Palm Sunday theme, I am always reminded by the readings today, that it was the women that stayed loyal (and close by) to Jesus until the very end — the women (one of whom I chose as my confirmation saint) and John.
Response: Vintage in Pink — Cheryl
I have a hutch filled with my mom’s bone china teacups and saucers (along with Hummels, plates, crystal). The linens I inherited from her fill the drawers of more than one dresser. All of these lovely vintage treasures are beautiful, and many were handmade by Mom. Since I have little room for it all, I’ve been tempted to give some away. That, though, somehow seems disloyal.
Jessica, this is another one of those Wow shots. You are definitely coming into your own as a photographer.
Thanks, Cheryl. It was a long (20 second) exposure with a pinhole lens. I was just taking the flowers when Luke ran into one shot and I saw the ghosting that happened, I thought, hmmm…that’s an interesting effect…
I can certainly understand how you would feel conflicted about your mother’s linens. More than one dresser? Wow! Your mother was prolific! You must have had beautifully set tables at your home.
