Another version of the Henry Ward Beecher quote . . .
I made another version of this quote. The first version appears in the post below. Which do you like better? Just curious. I call this one The Polaroid.
I am still having fun with my new camera lens. I couldn't get a good shot of the lily of the valley without doing the army crawl in the dirt so I picked it. I love the way it looks on the scallop shell. Click on the image for a larger view.
Happy Friday. Enjoy the long weekend. Have fun whatever you do. ♥Rosemary

Timely 17th century quote on taxation by Jean-Baptiste Colbert . . .
"The art of taxation consists of so plucking the goose as to obtain the largest amount of feathers while promoting the smallest amount of hissing."
A very timely quote by Jean-Baptiste Colbert, French Economist and Minister of Finance under King Louis XIV of France 1619-1683.
Some things never change, do they? I appreciate the humor of this man in tights!
