O is for Mosaic?


I have a LOT of respect for people that do mosaic work. To slowly, painstakingly break tiles into tiny little pieces, only to put it all back together in a different pattern, baffles me. I suppose there's some sort of therapeutic release, an unwinding or relaxing process for some people, but I'm not one of them. I prefer instant gratification ie: I want it, and I want it NOW! I suppose that's why I like photography. Click, here's my 'O', finished.

Great mosaic "O" shot :-) And I'm with you, looks great, lots of respect BUT I too am a "little" impatient :-D

Just caught up with your past posts too. Love the W, what a smashing find for the prompt, and the SP of your son, (only seen your daughter so far), "holding up the rock" is fab too.

These letter prompts are quite compulsive aren't they . . . I too am seeing letter everywhere.

Bye for now . . . Sue
