A transition's coming on here too, I want new things to do, old things to go. Simpler, simpler...like the sand at the beach. Sand for your backdrop?...it'll dull your photography by adding such a neutralizing color. Black seems extreme but does a nice job with showing off photos...if you use black, be sure your text choice is strong.

I think what you are experiencing is spring fever. Everyone of the creative bent suffers dreadfully from it, I think. My advice is to plant a garden, or buy a frock. I've been doing both this week! Of course, I am cleaning out my closet this week as well, out with the winter things, in with the summer things. But that's not nearly as much fun!<br /><br />As for the blog backgrounds.... gee. I don't really know. The photography certainly pops nicely on the black background, but there's something serene about the sandy one that I happen to like just now.<br />My current longing for the beach, no doubt. But I totally trust your ability to choose!!Pamela Terry and Edwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746603636884819522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7063946489075478675.post-20559050141503864712011-03-29T11:34:37.194-04:002011-03-29T11:34:37.194-04:00Yes, understand the winds of change.
