This is for mindlovemisery’s photochallenge #194. It stuck in my head. So here is the photographic reply.

And I still won’t confess.

abstract

For the Daily Prompt: confess.

I confess! I am not at home! My daughter and I are traveling. This is my favorite abstract photograph from yesterday.

I am not going to confess where we are… yet.

Fuji

Good morning. This is not Mount Fuji, but it reminds me of so many gorgeous paintings of Mount Fuji.

This is Mount Rainier, taken yesterday morning very zoomed in, from the field in front of the hospital. Our small hospital has the most gorgeous view.

Blessings and joy to all.
