i've just read your story .. i had no idea ..
your story brought tears to my eyes .. was like watching a very sad and poignant movie ... i'm so glad that it has a 'happier ending' than might have been .. i hope that any of the ptsd aftereffects have faded ..
its a crazy place this virtual world .. we know a certain amount about each other .. but never the full story ..
and even in the real world .. we dont then either ..
i'm so happy you have your husband and son .. that they were your strength during that devastating time .. i just cant imagine what it was like for you ..

but when something of that magnitude happens ... and the very close call you had .. i'm thinking you have survived for a reason .. having said that .. i feel we are all here for a reason .. and it doesnt have to be earth shaking ... just doing the best you can .. and being kind and loving to your fellow man .. are a great foundation .. but you have that wonderful gift of your photography ... i wonder if that is part of your reason .. and what else .. xx

Hope you get well soon, Wendy!

I recognized your lovely carnation very clearly - side lighting or not...and thought it was a humorous idea!
Actually I was also considering to make a flower from toilet paper for this challenge, but then I decided otherwise.

Toilet related entries don't go well here, this observation I've made some time ago...
:-)

The photograph is actually pretty good high key work. I would think what hurt this was the bathroom humor and maybe it didn't look a lot like a flower from that perspective. If you'd been able to work a squirrel into the scene, it may have worked out differently. It's good to take chances now and then. Bravo!

This would be a fabulous wall art in some place that doesn't want to offend folks with something "normal".

This is abnormal and fun. :D

Definitely abstract. I hope it's scoring well for you.
