This week’s Fun Foto Challenge is to show some of our soft pastel pictures.Pastels make me think of gentleness. Nothing is more comforting in all the world than a gentle spirit. To that end your photos today are brought to you by St. Francis De Sales.
After you are done here take a gander at some of the other pastel posts at Cee’s photog blog! http://www.ceephotography.com/2013/09/17/cees-fun-foto-challenge-soft-pastels/
Here are my gentle pastels:

When you encounter difficulties and contradictions, do not try to break them, but bend them with gentleness and time.
Saint Francis de Sales

“It is wonderful how attractive a gentle, pleasant manner is, and how much it wins hearts.”
― St. Francis de Sales
Beautiful pastels for this week! I of course am in love with the tulips!
Thanks Cee. I hope to visit this place again when it is in full bloom.
Love the softness of the pink tulips as well as the quotes from St. Francis de Sales you chose.
Thanks. May we all pursue the fruit of gentleness. I know this is an area I need to work on.
