Mosaic Monday: Late Again





Late again, with no excuse save that I actually forgot that it was Sunday...  :)  And I know that it's rather amusing for a person who photographs the passage of time -- antique books, dried flowers, old letters, long shadows, dusk -- to be so oblivious herself.  One of God's little cosmic jokes.  :)

So here are a few more images from my month in yellow.  I'm not sure what next month's color will be yet, but I'm almost positive that you will be seeing a lot of it!  ;)

Here are the instructions to join today's post:
1. Publish your Mosaic Monday post. The post may be about any subject you wish. The only stipulation is that it include a collage, or mosaic of photos.
2. Once it is published, click on the title of the post. This will lead you to the static link for your post. The static link is the page with only that post on it. Copy the url from your browser at the top of the page.
3. Paste the url into the appropriate inlinkz box in this post.
4. Type your name in the appropriate inlinkz box in this post.
5. Click on "Enter."
6. Please link back to this Mosaic Monday post so that your readers can find other wonderful mosaics.


That's all there is to it! It's always a good idea to then check and see if your link is working. If you have any questions, feel free to email me: mrcarroll(at)optonline.net

And a quick reminder: if you would like to join Mosaic Monday but don't know quite where to start, there is a tutorial on mosaic-making on my sidebar. Just scroll down, and click on the small blue mosaic.

  1. A pretty still life. Love lemon curd - just hand me a jar of it and a spoon.:)

  2. I would not worry about being late, you are gracious to be our host. I have not tried lemon curd, what do you use it as a spread like Jam? I do love the taste of lemons. Lovely mosaics, have a happy week ahead!

    1. Eileen, I must confess that I bought the jar of lemon curd expressly to photograph... which happens with a lot of my purchases. :) Ihave used it in the past of English muffins, but now I'm gluten-free, I will probably mix a little bit of it with plain yogurt and fresh fruit...

    2. Thanks, sounds like it would be great with the fresh fruit and yogurt!

    3. ooo - I have never thought of having it like that - though I must say lemon meringue pie filling goes great with icecream!

  13. Oh I can forget anything. You're in good company. Yellow? I thought the color was pea soup green and had to go back. Yes! Lots of yellow and it really pops, too. See how quickly I can forget?

  15. Oh gosh! I haven't done a Mosaic Monday in a long time and I used to love creating them. I really need to get my butt in great. I always love the ones you do Mary, your photos are so soothing. I especially love the one at the bottom with the lemons...lovely!

  16. Mary, what is the flower on the bottom picture? I learned mosaics here, but i am not in the swing of things quite yet. Yellow is so pretty. I am enjoying seeing it on your posts.

    1. Terri, the flowers are actually orange ranunculus that have dried. I tend to save flowers when they begin to fade... In case I might want to use them in a photograph. :)

  17. But where is the scone to go with the lemon curd? So delicious! DO you make your own? I do when the lemon tree is loaded. My gosh you have beautiful light coming through your window.
    Have a wonderful week, and thank you for hosting Mosaic Monday.

    1. Jill, no lemon trees in my climate! It must be wonderful to grow your own!!! And I would love a scone, but I no longer eat wheat... :(

      Hope your week is lovely, too! xoxo

  27. Beautiful yellows, Mary. The last photograph is my favorite. "Stills" always make me smile...

    ReplyDelete
  28. "Stills" are beautiful and I seem to not be good at them perhaps it's because I love movement!!...:)JP

  29. MORE of those glorious yellow images!! I love these, Mary!! So much!!

    And, yes.... cosmic jokes... I love clocks - fascinated with them - don't know why. I have absolutely no concept of the passage of time! I'm always late! sigh. =/

  30. Hi Mary, I lost track of Little Red House somehow with all the glut of the blogosphere. I'm happy to have found you're still posting your beautiful photographs. I think these are just stunning! I love the solid yellow blocks. Your mosaics are getting more creative. I won't lose you this time!
