Just a few moments before I happened to pass by yesterday this flower was probably at the peak of its beauty, beaming at pedestrians from a nearby hedge, but now it lies forlorn on a sidewalk, its moments numbered.
.Treasure beauty wherever you find it, for it may be gone in the blink of an eye.
.Yes, a bit maudlin. As you may guess from the tone of my post, our stressful situation has not yet been concluded, but hopefully will be by Thursday afternoon (oh how I hope so). Once it's all safely over I'll tell you about it.

I hope things turn out okay. I don't always comment, but I am a regular reader, and always enjoy my visits to your blog.
The pretty red pops out from the background. Hope all will be well with you.
Excellent shot for Seppia Scenes! It would have worked for Ruby Tuesday as well, Robin. I do hope your problem will be resolved successfully...
Thinking of you Robin, sending you more good vibes...
Toning down the sidewalk (or did you brighten it?) with sepia makes the red flower stand out better. You are right, savor the art when you can. Here is art that could be framed, a beauty!
Lovely shot, Robin. I do hope all is well!
What a pretty shot. Definitely should be in a frame. I love your header but there is only one thing wrong with it. Your kitchen is too clean ;-) Doesn't look like mine at all.
Wishing you all the very best. I'll be staying tuned. Maudlin it may be but life is like that sometime and this is a lovely illustration of hope and optomism.
hope things turn out okay! take care.
Wish I could do something to help.
It made a beautiful picture, tho!
yes hang on tight
I am glad you found a way to express what you are feeling... to say what you can and express it in such a way is only giving voice to what can not always be said. I'm hoping with you... XO
A beautiful combo of sepia and red.
The flower once had it's glory I'm sure :)
May the beauty endure; may peace come.
Simplicity teamed with elegance - I love this great shot!
Take care Robin. May your days soon be stress free.
Very nice what you've done here! I forgot about that effect - but that red flower sure looks nice, especially since I'm so ready for spring!
I also hope that everything works out for you!
I love this imagery. Something bright and cheerful in an otherwise gloomy place.
Please let us know when you are safe. beautiful photo too.
This is stunning the red on gray and the simplicity of the photo is lovely. Hope you are all OK!
I love flowers and this sepia scene makes it outstanding. Best wishes :)
Still channeling all the good karma I can your way girl. With the time difference, I'm thinking it's already late afternoon, early evening there so I'm hoping you've already gotten good news.
Everything still crossed that I can cross.
Hi!
Beautiful Shot! The flower looks good enough to frame. Have a great day!!
Sherrie
this is so poignant. I'm glad I checked out today's post first so that I can feel the beauty of that flower as it relates to your good news
many hugs from NJ :)
Oh this is a wonderful mix of sepia with color. I have to agree with Penny.
It does represent both lack of and abundance at the same time.
This absolutely wonderful Robin!!
Happy weekend,
Jackie:-))))
Nicely done, I love the bit of color.
