Fw: [MC74 and Friends] my entry for RED and GOLD






Hello 2 ba chu

Today we completed a 3-hour trekking uphill to the Shri Kunjapuri temple, so here are my entries for red & gold. It was a strenuous climb but well worth it.
We saw the mountscape, one side was toward Nepal and the other toward Tibet
(Incidentally I also became a tourist attraction)

Ciao

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] STATUES







DEAR  MAI  CHAU , BAO  TRAM  AND  FRIENDS
MY  ENTRIES  FOR  STATUES ......... BIZ      HL


Fw: More winter




Dear Em Ci,

 Spring, summer, winter ... I love your 'ong hang xom''s garden ... viewed through your 
lenses (as Lan would surely agrees, it just doesn't look the same in real life hi hi)
I especially love the center shot and the close up and of course the moon shots.


Dear fellow PNEHs and Friends,

 I was in Westlake, Ohio last week and finally experienced some real winter :-)  Here's how it 
looked and felt...

On the other side I and II
  were taken at Huntington Beach on Lake Erie, the wind was
blowing hard and the 28F felt like -28F and to borrow TK's words
it seems 

On the other side
I can see us waiting
for all we know we'll be.
Tyler Knott




 


 



 1st collage: I name what brave trees for like JM ...
i realise there's something incredibly 
honest about trees in winter, how
they're experts at letting things go.
Jeffrey Mcdaniel




 2nd collage: A touch of red in the winter white 
I just had to find something to remind me of summer, as I
can't seem to find the invincible summer in me (leave it to Camus :-))

 In the midst of winter I finally learned that
there was in me an invincible summer.
Albert Camus



Have a nice day,
BT

PS> just found out this 'stationery' feature in yahoo mail using google chrome browser,
pretty nifty eh?

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] more entries for winter



Dear Bi twin, fellow PNEHs, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

here are my additional entries for the extended theme WINTER.
The first photo was taken yesterday afternoon in my neighbors' backyard. (Hint to my little sis: there is a big space in my photo too :-))
The second photo, of the moonlight was taken on a recent Sunday evening in my neighborhood.
The pictures in the collage were taken at various times in various places; the photos of the moonlight and the bare tree against a backdrop of purple sky were from my neighborhood, the photo of pine trees in the sunset were taken in upstate NY, the one with trees, clouds and sunset was taken while on the road to to southern NJ.

goodnight from be^n Bo*\ So^ng

Fwd: [MC74 and Friends] my entry for RED and GOLD






Dear Bi twin, fellow PNEH, painters, poets, Mai Quang and Forum friends,

my additional entry "canh\ hoa ddao\ va\ mat. troi*\" with my warmest wishes for a wonderful new year to all of you.
The photo was taken this past Thursday. On my way to work, I passed by this shop behind the fences, on First Avenue, I saw the reflection of the morning sun with its golden rays on the window, then noticed the cherry blossoms.
 To my friend and fellow New Yorker (and fellow night owl) Mai Quang, thank you for your good wishes. I wish you love, luck, health, happiness.

Fw: [MC74 and Friends] My 2nd entry for red and gold



Dear Ci Twin and  PNEH friends, 

 I went by the LV store at Stanford Shopping Center today and couldn't
believe it ... they  had their window display arranged  for our theme! and 
with a sense of humor to boot with the red purse replacing the cherry
on the cupcake :-)

So here we go, don't you think it's perfect for the theme? ;-)
