Nancy’s challenge to us this week is all about the word: WHITE
http://nadiamerrillphotography.wordpress.com/2014/12/03/a-photo-a-week-challenge-white/
As soon as I saw the word my mind went immediately to….. SNOW
But honestly snow is not all bad. Isaiah the prophet speaking for God said,
“Come now, let us settle the matter,” says the LORD. “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.” Isaiah 1:18
This week’s black & white challenge from Cee is all about: LIGHTS
When you have finished here go to:

I wanted to take a little bit of a philosophical tac with this challenge.
‘We do not truly see light, we only see slower things lit by it, so that for us light is on the edge–the last thing we know before things become too swift for us.’
Author: C.S. Lewis
In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don’t.
Author: Blaise Pascal

Now, this is the way which I went this week!
The Way By the Cliffs of Moher
“For outlandish creatures like us, on our way to a heart, a brain, and courage, Bethlehem is not the end of our journey but only the beginning – not home but the place through which we must pass if ever we are to reach home at last.”
― Frederick Buechner, The Magnificent Defeat

This week’s Sunday Still Challenge is all about the circuitous paths we take. Find out how other photographers have interpreted the theme of THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD at
Here are my interpretations:
The road into Torc Falls is a long and windy way.
But I do not have to travel to Ireland to find a long winding road. I can travel plenty in my native New England.
Ailsa has challenged us to take the high road and get above our subjects this week.
To see how other bloggers rose to the occasion got to

Go to

to see how an absolutely phenomenal convergence of bloggers takes on the subject.
Here are my thoughts on the matter…
Autumn Snows
Here I am in New England the place where seasons meet and play together for days at a time.
Killarney, where the lakes meet the mountains and the mountains introduce the skies and the waters run off with them both in a divine romance.
The convergence of souls.
Which way will you go this week?
