It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple tree is connected with that of man.
Henry David Thoreau

Love proves itself by deeds,
so how am I to show my love?
Great deeds are forbidden me.
The only way I can prove my love is by scattering flowers,
and these flowers are every little sacrifice,
every glance and word,
and the doing of the least actions for love
. — Therese of Lisieux


How does the Meadow flower its bloom unfold?
Because the lovely little flower is free
Down to its root, and in that freedom bold.
William Wordsworth


“Look past your thoughts, so you may
drink the pure nectar of This Moment.”

“Anything more than 500 yards from the car just isn’t photogenic.” – Edward Weston
Monochrome Madness will be posted a day early for your viewing pleasure on Leanne Cole’s blog.
If you would like to participate and submit a photo in the upcoming weeks, please email your monochrome image to leanne@leannecole.com.au and include a link to your blog or website if you have one. It doesn’t have to be WordPress blogger, it can be a Facebook page, a Flickr page, etc. Include your name or your blog name. The image size should be low resolution, so the largest size should be 1000 pixels or less. The deadline for submission is before 6 p.m. on or before Tuesday, Melbourne Australia time. The earlier the better for Leanne. If you should miss the deadline your photograph will be posted the following week. The complete instructions are posted on Leanne’s blog should you have any questions or need help. The first MM of every month will have a theme. Monochrome Madness will be on hiatus as Leanne will be traveling to the USA and posting a journal during her trip. There will be no MM after this one until the first week of October and it will be another theme published the 7th of October. Leanne will be announcing what that theme will be.
