* 5 min friday *

jump... i have jumped this year, i have jumped into something deeper and it became more powerful than i ever dreamed it could be. It was a big leap of faith and now i have to keep on holding tight of hopes that my jump wasnt a jump too far, too deep, so out of my reach.
Even if I will fall into a big black hole, i will never regret that i took the jump. the jump into something new, something powerfull, something called trust and love. I have learned so much about life, about me since i took that jump. not all is positive also some negative things about myself but yet i learned valuable lessons which i will carry with me the rest of my life. the positive is i learned i could do stuff i always thought i was too scared for, too shy, too afraid of me and my emotions, too afraid of the world and people who live in it who have hurt me over and over in the past. yet I took the jump and found the trust in someone else. trust and love and care and all because i took a jump i always though i would never ever take. it gives me hope and trust in the future that maybe one day i will find someone again who i can jump with...

* PhotoChallenge week 15 - flora *

It has been too long since I played along with the weekly photochallenges, but I managed to get this weeks shot. The subject is Flora and I love to take photo's of blossoms which are about to burst open now that the spring is finally arriving in Holland.
Enjoy your Sunday!

* photo challenge week 7 *

This is my entry for this weeks photo challenge transportation.
Really like the different point of view than from what I normally shoot.

* Texture Tuesday *

This weeks theme is color pop over at Texture Tuesday.
I very much enjoyed the fresh spring colors of the flowers. All is so dark these days in the winter.
I used Minus 45 and ugglovesepia.

* photochallenge 52-2013 week 3 & 4 *

I missed week 3 earlier because I was ill, but I wanted to take the shot any way.
Subject was minimalism.

Subject of week 4 is Winter. Too bad the snow is gone over here, but I managed to get another shot which I think is also quite fitting for winter. Luckily I was at the right time at the right place in order to get this photo :)

* Week 4 photochallenge *

I am following several challenges at once and I have to say I pick the theme that fits me most :) This time I choose bare. Unfortunately I didn't have any time to go out to photograph this week. So I used the camera on my mobile phone to take this shot. Normally it isn't up to my standards but I dediced to embrace it and go with it after all :)

(Slightly edited in Photoshop elements)
Enjoy your sunday

* food *

Last weeks theme was food.... first I wasn't too happy with the result, I think I can do better.
But now I like the outcome of it.
