that without listening speaking no longer heals,
that without distance closeness cannot cure”

Beautiful shots, Joy, I particularly like the first two and the second one from the bottom. Really wonderful captures! xxx Ailsa
Thank you so much!
I vote for the purple peppers as well
🙂 I definitely think they are the winner!
Wow Joy, these are all great. The first two and the second to last are definitely my favorites though! Love ’em.
Thank you so much, Jeff.
That means a great deal, especially coming from the expert! 😉
Expert, me? Far from it, but thank you none the less. I’d be pretty happy if any of the images you shared this week were my own. 🙂
Fabulous selection of macro photos for the challenge Joy! The purple peppers caught my attention as I’ve never seen them in that color. 😉
Thank you.
The purple peppers seem to be the fav 🙂
Yes, they are awesome looking! 😉
The hubs spotted them before we were leaving. I was so glad he did so that I could capture their beautiful uniqueness.
Good job Hubs! 🙂
Fabulous shots!
Thank you!
