MSA March/April 2017 "Healing"

Nice footprint

Last day in this MSA

Well we have to admit, we did not think that this theme would ever dive into such a depth of reality!
Some of the images taken, expressed and exposed a devotion and care, .. with such an honest vulnerability, the courage, love and compassion for another, that it raised the theme well beyond the normal limits of a Monthly Shooting Assignment, and thus set its tone, for love and its remembrance.

Thank you, .. for displaying in your images:

The waiting, .. and hope for a healing, shown in the gift of love given in the guise of a stuffed animal, with love, .. for a seriously ill friend.
Of expressing, .. that:
Photography can be a way to heal oneself from stress, and to clear the mind, in dealing with the raw facts of life.
That Healing can also be found in the:
Fruit and spring flowers, for all those who have been battered by the winter of our lives yet again, while awaiting the spring flowers and sunshine of a new season.
Or, Healing can also be found:
In a checkup that develops and shows a reversal, and finding, thankfully, .. that where only a little bit the worse for wear in one way, as we have been healed with a little help from a band-aid, .. to place on what has only turned out to be a blister, .. that showed up one day in our life.

Thank you all, ..
And the winner is .. Apple by Sly
"Pressured and bruised by the branch that supported it, this apple healed around it's injury."

Thank you Peter. A challenging topic, and interesting interpretations from the participants.

I've got an idea rolling round my head for the next MSA. I should have it fleshed out soon......

Well done Lillian.
And thank you Peter for the topic.
For those concerned, my wife's feet seem to be recovering nicely .

Thank you Peter, this was a very interesting MSA.
And congratulations to Sly.

Wow! Healing can also be found: On Peter's beautiful overview (for all the images taken), a decision that gives meaning to this monthly shooting, and a piece of Glory to everyone.

Thanks
