This is the 3rd of my images honoring the unknown artists of Pompeii. This excavated Pompeiian painting of a beautiful woman shows her with a stylus delicately pointed to her lips. I have placed a dried orange rose in the foreground; her eyes are drawn to it in contemplation.
Picture of the day: An ocellaris clownfish dancing among the tentacles of its anemone host. These fish were everywhere in Dumaguete, Philippines but they are in constant motion, so they are not easy to capture.
As the #sun doth sink 'tween tower and age-old walls,
The plaza basks in gentle, warm #orange embrace.
In tranquil eve, the #city waits, as #nightfall calls,
Preparing for nocturnal symphony to grace.
...and at night, when everything seems so dark that you start to feel crazy and hopeless, just remember: a new morning will come and a new sun will shine for you.
