The softness of white

White whispers; it never shouts.  White is restful and calming.  White is ...



... lily of the valley


... and white lilacs.

"White is the color of angels and brides, moonlight and lily of the valley.  It is capable of endless subtleties; fragile or strong, it can be transparent as ice, opaque as marble, in love with light as a diamond." ~ Victoria, At Home With White

    I always swoon over your images Lynda. Crisp, sharp, clear and you position where you know the eye must go...

    White is just everything that you described. It's bliss!

    Apparently white is delicious! What? No recipe?

    Lily of the Valley and Lilacs came and went so quickly here, especially the Lilacs. I adore the white.
