Cowgirl said at 10:07 p.m. on May 22, 2008: very clever great shots
AliDar said at 10:15 p.m. on May 22, 2008: I like the second title better, it's suits how Im feeling, and this space seems a little too sterile and glaring for my tastes., but everything has a yin yang, even though it's sometimes hard to keep that in mind. Love the swallows on the wires... I think they mate for life.
Leftofcenter said at 10:32 p.m. on May 22, 2008: first title, the light @ the end of the tunnel, that window that opens when a door shuts, the last beer in the fridge, that pair of shoes u love one pair left and it's your size... love these b/w pics, some kinda mood you're in amiga, intense, the two birds, you and me against the world, yes what matters is friendship. love all this weirdness!
Keeli said at 11:03 p.m. on May 22, 2008: Love the selective coloring! Great tabblo!
Wildthing said at 5:38 a.m. on May 23, 2008: A strong sense of melancholy going down here. If you're feeling a little blue, take your shoes off & wiggle your toes. It won't change a damn thing, but it'll make you smile :)
Sirnicolay said at 8:15 a.m. on May 23, 2008: Cool idea, Linda. I love that book of Kundera by the way. :)
OscarDaniel said at 8:40 a.m. on May 23, 2008: Great idea and photography Linda!! good tabblo!
Karsten said at 8:53 a.m. on May 23, 2008: Hi Linda! Great shots - mt fav is the 3rd one..like this effect - if those fotos reflect your mood right now you are kind of melancoclic...take a walk in the garden or the park and look at all the growing of spring...start of a new circle...well, for me it helps to clear my mind a bit..hehe...and i agree with James - kundera is great i when i read the title i thought instantly of that book! Have a nice day, Linda and thanks for sharing those fotos!
Tishfish said at 9:06 a.m. on May 23, 2008: All over the world we experience those dull dark days which puts in the same mood, but I always feel a good laugh brightens my day a lot. Great shots ! ! ! ! !
Emmabro said at 10:30 a.m. on May 23, 2008: wonderful shots ..the sense of atmosphere from them is great !!!
Eduardo.affonso said at 10:36 a.m. on May 23, 2008: I think the last pic translates perfectly the unbearable lightness of being. Congrats, LINDA!
Debdog said at 11:57 a.m. on May 23, 2008: OOOOOOOOO Linda...my FAV FAV is the last shot!! BEAUTIFUL image :) I was thankful to see the rain and get the fires put out!
Debdog said at 12:00 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Dont give up cause you have friends Dont give up Youre not the only one Dont give up No reason to be ashamed Dont give up You still have us Dont give up now Were proud of who you are Dont give up You know its never been easy Dont give up cause I believe theres the a place Theres a place where we belong (excerpt from Peter Gabriel~ "Don't Give Up"

Magedimages said at 4:06 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Bien fait ! Bravo.
AliDar said at 4:13 p.m. on May 23, 2008: I've never heard of the book or the author before so just did a search... can someone please explain how nihilism is suppose to make you feel better about things?
Leftofcenter said at 4:49 p.m. on May 23, 2008: if it has no meaning, then why let anything bother you? hey I'm only leftie, I think we should listen to some jimmy buffett http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUTf5qvS0Lo you don't mind meega? TGIF!
EMA said at 5:19 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Very good and meaningful tabblo!
Rheap said at 6:16 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Great work Linda!!
Lifequest22 said at 6:24 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Nihilism is so complex. I like Leftie's response. It's LIGHT. (not Bud) . She not heavy, she's my Sister.
Lifequest22 said at 6:25 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Thank your Ray and Ema--Now see Dar, Ema said it's a very MEANINGFUL Tabblo. Smile--You're on Candid Tabblo.
Leftofcenter said at 6:31 p.m. on May 23, 2008: candid tabblo???? now THAT'S an oxymoron!!!
Lifequest22 said at 6:31 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Thierry and Manual--Thank You.
AliDar said at 6:32 p.m. on May 23, 2008: I'm just so confused... ... I'll have a Bud though.... and make it a light, if there's one. <G>
SterlingGray said at 6:38 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Great set, love the thrid one - the bright light always shines through - but I really like Leftie's suggestion, let's go listen so some Jimmy!!!
Lifequest22 said at 6:41 p.m. on May 23, 2008: Brownies and Bud Light being served on this Tab. Tequila and Tacos on Lefties NO Message Tab.
Thanks Sterling--- The Jimmy B goes better with Beer.
Leftofcenter said at 6:43 p.m. on May 23, 2008: margarita-ville???????
AliDar said at 6:47 p.m. on May 23, 2008: B&B or T&T, doesn't matter, just don't make me think anymore today.... Jimmy Buffet is just fine for that.
JuDeck said at 9:29 p.m. on May 23, 2008: its wine night here...a nice cab-sirah mix...it's the unbearable dark lines that allow the blackness to come through...need to keep the candles flickering....i like the dove shot L
Shenresi said at 3:19 a.m. on May 24, 2008: wonderful shots, Linda and a great idea, but also a little bit depressing effects with that b/w shots, but I get hope at pic #3, with the coloured lamp - great tabblo !!!
Patgf58 said at 11:05 a.m. on May 24, 2008: I used to dread the summer heat here in FL. Now I cant wait for the clouds rain and storms. Smell and listen ofter a good lightning storm. The fresh waft of ozone cleaning the air and the all the critters that come out for the evening. My favorite time of the day. From some of your tabs evenings in the Tampa hood are pretty cool too. Great oak tree shot.
Lifequest22 said at 11:58 a.m. on May 24, 2008: Thanks Angela. Jude--the trick is to keep that candle burning to keep out the solid black.
Lifequest22 said at 12:00 p.m. on May 24, 2008: PAT--Thanks. I wish we had more rain now. The humidity is unbearable. My plants are crying for rain. The tree shot is somewhere here in the hood.
Sherlockhomes said at 4:18 p.m. on May 24, 2008: Very dramatic shots!
Nina1960 said at 2:23 a.m. on May 25, 2008: I recognise this mind situation already too well...your last picture says enough....great tabblo Linda.
Appropos said at 10:25 a.m. on May 25, 2008: a dark tabblo but very interesting ..
Marcif said at 1:15 p.m. on May 25, 2008: Cool shots. I like the third one with the light showing the only color in the scene.
Lifequest22 said at 1:33 p.m. on May 25, 2008: Thanks for your comments Cindy, Marian, Marcie and Farid.
