Cactus Monday - Cintia Knizei

The picture of this little cactus without the flower looked like a blob . It didn't even have any spines. So I had to do the flower. I like the way the flower turned out but the gravel in the background, not so good. I need to practice backgrounds, or just disregard them. Happy Cactus Monday to all of you Cacuteers.

OSI Prompt - Folly

Without a good trim
these limbs became my folly
cheering every spring.

I wrote this after reading the prompt for this week at One Single Impression.
For more poetry go to OSI and enjoy the words.

Animal Wednesday - Gilly

I was surfing the blogosphere one evening and came upon a picture of this horse. It had quite a touching story and I just loved this picture of it. I think its name is Gilly. I didn't mark down what blog I was on so I am sorry I can't give any credits to those that should get them.

This is my first attempt at doing a horse. His ears might be a little too long. Maybe that is the way he was in the picture. HAW to all of you Animal Wednesday people.
