Looking inside the #window of a patisserie in France. White cloud shaped meringues stacked in a pyramid and baked loaves with chocolate chips. A chandelier hangs inside and you see the reflection of the building across the street, with many #windows #BlueSkyArtShow #Streetphotography #ArtYear #Lyon
Looking inside the window of a patisserie in France. On the left you see white cloud shaped meringues stacked in a pyramid and on the right are baked loaves with chocolate chips. Further inside you’ll see a large chandelier, and a few bakers wearing white coats. In the window reflection you see the reflection of the building across the street, with many windows and a blue sky above

Lyon Cathedral, France 🇫🇷 Beautiful stained glass #windows adorn the cathedral and the light is reflecting across the arched ceilings in wonderful shades of pinks and greens. #BlueSkyArtShow #ArtYear #France #Lyon #Light #Photography #Travel
A round stained glass window in the lower center and within the window is a multicolored pattern in the shape of a flower. The light is coming through each side of the cathedral and reflecting shards of light pink and green across the arches and the ceiling

Boston, MA architecture is a fun exploration of history. I love these #windows and the contrast against the red brick. #BlueSkyArtShow #ArtYear #StreetPhotography #Boston #Architecture

Taliesin West, Phoenix AZ. Frank Lloyd Wright designed these #Windows in the ceiling. You can see a small bit of blue sky and clouds through the #window. I love how the light pours through and reveals interesting patterns against the rock wall and rust-colored wood panels. #BlueSkyArtShow #ArtYear
Windows cut in a perfect square in the ceiling. You can see a small bit of blue sky and clouds through the window. The light pours through and reveals interesting patterns against the rock wall and rust-colored wood panels

#Windows for the #BlueSkyArtShow today. This beautiful lighthouse is on Cape Disappointment in WA. I love the long window at the center and there’s a smaller series of windows encircling the top of the lighthouse. A perfect #BlueSky in the background! #ArtYear #Photography #PNW #Landscape

My sweet boy crossed the Rainbow Bridge on Wednesday. He was such a handsome, curious, wonderful boy. He transitioned during the full moon, as a comet is passing through. I knew it was his way of saying he’s home, he’s ok. We love you, Goliath. Thank you for loving us for 18 years 💫🌈💙

Beautiful cat looking up. You can see his enchanting green eyes, a cute pink nose and his softest fur is bathed in sunlight.

#FebruARTy #eyes #ArtYear
“I said: what about my eyes?
God said: Keep them on the road.

What about my passion?
God said: Keep it burning.

What about my heart?
God said: Tell me what you hold inside it?

Pain and sorrow.
God: Stay with it. The wound is the place where the Light enters you.”
~ Rumi
