Description

So we are in Rome for our 35 th Anniversary, and I see a Cross reflected through a glass window... I. FORGET that I took my last photo with a 1 second exposure, Dummy ! I snap this shot and forget it... Later when we returned to our hotel I get a call Our dog collapsed and is in Bad shape in Vet hospital! Oh my G*d! On our Long awaited Special week our Best friend Louie , is .... Unfortunately the next day Louie passed away! We are heartbroken and want to cancel our remaining 6 nights in Italy. We are not sure we can go on this week... Out of nervous energy I flip the camera on and look at the photos I took the night before... I See What Looks Like a Horrible Photo, garbage.. Days later when I look at it again... I See What Looks Like My Grandmother in the left side of the frame.. It takes some imagination , but It Definitely Could Resemble Her!! I Will Let You Decide What You See!? Harvey

It's a mystery but the human imagination works so vividly sometimes that drives us to feel an event in various expressios, and probably we need this feeling in our real life! This is a great artistic abstract photo, Harvey! I' sorry for your pet loss. #11851510

I Should Have Made Clear Earlier, Louie’s Passing was in 2014... In January of 2015, I was Adopted by a New Best Friend named Nicholas.. or Mr. Tesla (when he is very Good ! ) Nicholas was 8 when he arrived... Some Middle aged pups are forgotten.. He is the Perfect match and Companion for us.. So We Are Whole Again, THANK YOU ALL ! I Truly Appreciate Your Kind, Friendship and Generous Comments on my photos... YOU ALL INSPIRE ME DAILY !
