weeping willow is one of my favourite trees too; I like thinking of them when I'm sad because it feels like the tree's sad with you. You can sit beneath them and they both cry with you and reach out to embrace you with their limbs/branches. Your profile pic of them blowing in the wind is really cool, Binderz :)Weeping willow.
Weeping = sadness
Willow = one of my favorite trees
Great question, by the way.

Tears: Thanks for bringing a smile to my face. I love the embrace of a willow's branches, too. Round and round I twist myself -- getting lost in the leaves and limbs. So comforting.weeping willow is one of my favourite trees too; I like thinking of them when I'm sad because it feels like the tree's sad with you.

That sounds super interestingMine is from the animated film The Last Unicorn. It's basically the story of a wandering immortal unicorn who goes on a search looking for the rest of her kind after finding out she may be the last one. In the process she meets both good and bad people, and at a certain point she is transformed into a human and has to navigate the new experience of human emotions, including love and pain. She comes to know the loss of innocence that comes with being a mortal. I liked the film as a child but can't really watch it anymore since it makes me sad.

A period of photography I greatly enjoy exploring. If you enjoy soft and atmospheric photography that appears to luminesce, look into Pictorialism ;-)In the summer of 1874, Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) was living next door to Alfred Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) at Farringford, Freshwater, on the Isle of Wight. Tennyson had taken "Morte D'Arthur" published in 1842 and expanded it into "Idylls of the King" in 1859. He asked Cameron to make illustrations for a new publication of these poems and she produced over 200 prints from wet-plate collodion-on-glass negatives. Unfortunately, the publisher chose only two to be reformatted as wood-engravings and even those did not reproduce well in the final book.
At Tennyson's encouragement, Cameron went on to produce a book of her own with albumen silver prints interspersed with texts by Tennyson lithographed from Cameron's hand-writing. The first volume appeared in January 1875 and the second in May, selling for six guineas. The frontispiece for each volume was a portrait of Tennyson dressed as "The Dirty Monk," dated 1869.
