Captured this photo in Dustin’s garden as the sun cast shadows on the roses. Always trying to get a different view of these roses. They are each one very special.
There are different types of shadows in life. Many things are more beautiful because of shadows cast around them, to illuminate perhaps. Others are kept in the shadows but should be brought to the forefront. This quote always comes to mind when I think about shadows…
We must bring the issue of mental illness out into the sunlight, out of the shadow, out of the closet, deal with it, treat people, have centers where people can get the necessary help. ~John Lewis

i like the picture. i think there should be a lot to think about the concept.
I like the photo of this flower and the shadows on it. Yes, mental health is one that has needed to be out of the shadows for a long time.
I have met some with mental health issues and their stories are real
Even grateful to have made friends with some of these people.
When you look at this world and the crazy things that leaders of some areas do, who is to say who is crazy or sane?
We are all human and it is important that people are made to feel loved, and not alone.
That is one lovely picture. An that quote on mental health is the need to the hour.
Thank you Dawn, good to see you. The mental health quote needs to be repeated daily I believe.
Each shadow has a different angle, view, and cast.
I do love the concept, it is one I have studied for a long time. Thank you! Watching shadows is as fun as watching clouds!
Yes, shadows are mysterious and incredible to watch and think about. The quote is important as well.
it is, just a harder topic than I was ready to comment on.
See that is the problem, it needs to be talked about. Not easy at all but we are losing too many to suicide. Some preventable, others are not.
Wonderful capture , thank you for sharing
Thanks for visiting my friend.
You are a keen observer that you could spot the shadow
Thanks Grace, the shadows make such a difference in a photo.
Beautiful sentiments expressed in this post. I agree we need to remove the stigma from mental health
Thank you for reading and understanding my friend. I was trying to make a point and hopefully it will help those who need it.
Actually, I want to stand on the highest mountain and shout that message for all to hear!
Have a good evening and always good to see you!
Another beautiful rose picture. Dustin’s garden must be unique.
How kind of you, thank you. I try to make it unique.
This year I had the extra butterfly bush and it has helped bring more butterflies and hummingbird moths. Very happy about that.
Like any of your paintings, this one is great too, dear Carol
Much appreciate my friend, the shadows are my friend.
Another beautiful rose post,thanks for sharing.

As always, a perfect photo. I like the quote a lot.
Too kind my dear friend. But thank you! These are special roses.
The quote really spoke to me as well.
It’s always difficult to strike the balance …
Nice capture tho!!
Yes it is indeed, thank you!
Keeping balance in life is a must and yes it is hard to do on many days.
