~ PURPLE IS THE SPRING SNOW ~

~~~ Certaines fleurs se font gloire de la mort : les fleurs du cerisier japonais, par exemple, qui, librement s'abandonnent aux vents. Un moment, elles voltigent et dansent sur les eaux de cristal. Puis, en voguant sur l'onde souriante, elles semblent dire : " Adieu, Printemps, nous nous en allons vers l' Eternité !" 

 

~ ~ ~ Some flowers are glory of death: the flowers of Japanese cherry, for example, who freely sank into the winds. One moment, they flutter about and dance on the crystal waters. Then, sailing on the smiling wave, they seem to say: "Goodbye, Spring, we are going to  Eternity!" 

 Okakura KAZUKO, Le Livre du Thé ~ ~ ~

 

Salut mes voyageurs. Thierry-chiloedream

Ce n'est pas pour te jeter des fleurs, mais ton tabblo est très beau, et je suis jalouse car la floraison est beaucoup plus précoce chez toi que chez moi. Mais patience, mon heure viendra !
Caresses à Babouche. Bisous pour toi.

Les couleurs sont parfaites...J 'aime aussi le title du votre tabblo et la citation de Kazuko Okakura... Merci encore une fois !
Thechillofeons said at 1:47 a.m. on May 10, 2008:
I am most impressed indeed. The chairs leaning forward in the ground level shot of the pink-purple sea seem to give it an almost psychedelic, dreamlike property. The diagonal angle in the picture below the orange rose makes it more compelling than it already is. Oh, and you chose an impeccable background color for this tabblo, I can't imagine any other one working as good. The two pink roses in front of the wall remind me of spouses in bitterness, with their kids either trying to reconcile them or taking sides. The creamy pink rose in between the two pictures of the "petal to the metal" forces me to reminisce of peppermint candy ice cream. Everything here is good, even the bees. I like bees!
Msisongkram said at 2:00 a.m. on May 10, 2008:
Totally impressed with every single shot you took. So pretty and romantic. Loved the flowers, loved the petals like a purple carpet. Loved the chinese painting at the background...loved all of them! Such a beautiful Tabblo! Thierry, you always give us the best Tabblo! Thank you!

Oui, Thierry, B est B!! Superbe! J’aime cette variété de neige, Thierry !! :) Babouche devient une telle célébrité.

Pkeener said at 11:57 a.m. on May 13, 2008:
Thierry. North Winds!! I must say that i am always bowled over by the beauty you bring to your tabblos, but what really exites me is the way you oick up the patterns and compose them into the tabblo. weaving a rich tapestry of color, life, art, and beauty. Merci. #4, 8, 14, 24, and 28 are my faves.
Chiloedream said at 12:27 p.m. on May 13, 2008:
Merci Pammie, tes préférences rejoignent les miennes, l' opposition des matières métal/pierre/végétal peut nous donner des images plaisantes. North winds. Thierry-chiloedream.

YES! That is what I was trying to say. I love these juxtapositions that you always find.
Chiloedream said at 3:19 p.m. on May 13, 2008:
