stirring with passion
paying homage to the sun
your time will be brief

Caterpillar: By the way, I have a few more helpful hints. One side will make you grow taller...
Alice: One side of what?
Caterpillar: ...and the other side will make you grow shorter.
Alice: The other side of what?
Caterpillar: THE MUSHROOM, OF COURSE!

I just used a watercolor effect on this self portrait that I took. I love how it turned out!
Some on flickr have voiced disapproval of the thickness of the watercolor effect but I think it really adds to the picture. It gives it more depth and character.

What do you think?

Nothing Gold Can Stay by: Robert Frost

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower; But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief, So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay.

From "Complete Poems of Robert Frost", 1916
