Sometimes I find an image that makes me dream of being a painter, creating a piece of art filled with an assortment of vibrant and rich colours and bringing forth a gorgeous picture. You’re image has that effect on me. With these images filled with a rainbow of colours, words are not needed as the "picture" speaks for itself. It has an unexplained charm that pulls you to look and look again. That is why your photograph was placed in this theme. It is magic at its best.

Sometimes one find an image that is soft on the eye and touches the heart. With these images words are not needed as the "picture" speaks for itself. It has an unexplained magnetism that pulls you to look and look again. That is why your photograph was placed in this theme. It is magic at its best.

These are the photographs I have taken in and around my garden.

So far it includes: Birds, Reptiles, Spiders and Insects.

Purple is my absolute favourite colour. If you posted something purple chances are good that I will find it and come and critique it.

The word Purple originates from the Latin purpura. This in turn comes from the Greek porphura, which described the dye manufactured from the mucus of a marine snail.

The first recorded use of the word purple in English was in the year AD 975.

The standard colour changed over the years, from Tyrian Purple to Electric Purple today.

I have a soft spot for dainty birds. The descriptions I found for the word dainty is as follow:
delicate,
elegant,
graceful,
refined,
exquisite,
pretty,
petite,
neat,

The above words describe small and beautiful birds to their fullest.

We find such a variety of insects and birds with a diversity of metallic colours, in their plumage, wings or bodies. These colours amaze me time and time again and I do not think I’ll ever get tired to look at these stunning creatures, as the metallic colouration just adds that extra glamour to any living thing what so ever. Please share this theme and add to the explosion of colour by ways of metallic.

Dedications I have made is done with a special reason for a special person at the time. The recipients of this dedications are all dear to me. I have created this theme that I can be reminded of this special group of people every now and again when I look back at these images.

Images dedicated to me, which I appreciate and keep close to the heart. A dedication is not done without a reason. Whatever the reason, the gesture is much appreciated, and it belongs in this special theme "Dedications I have received" These might have been moved from my original "Favourites Folder" right into my personal theme.
