A city is a place where there is no need to wait for next week to get the answer to a question, to taste the food of any country, to find new voices to listen to and familiar ones to listen to again.
Margaret Mead
(1901-1978)
When anxious, uneasy and bad thoughts come, I go to the sea, and the sea drowns them out with its great wide sounds, cleanses me with its noise and imposes a rhythm upon everything in me that is bewildered and confused.
Rainer Maria Rilke
(1875-1926)

Hmmmm love these mosaics Kenda... maybe you're in a moodswing but taking it along for us to see is just wonderful for my eyes.
Aahhh .... I am calmed. Those muted colours have a wonderful effect on me. I love the mosaics and the Rainer Maria Rilke quote really hits the spot.
oh how I need the sights and sounds of the sea this day...you have captured a feeling in these images with flare
Wonderful mosaic! xx
lovely muted colours. calming. this is what i need right now. something calming.
wow--you really got the feeling--it's beautiful there.. Hope you are enjoying your holiday.
I am really enjoying looking at the simple beauty of your photos, seeing where you have been, what you have seen ... and I love how you organised your photos together and these muted colors are so relaxing :)
I love, absolutely love, Rilke, and that photo of pebbles on the beach in close up has the most gorgeous tones. Mmm..thank you for my morning zen moment

Sorry to hear that the weather wasn't more cooperative, but glad to hear the break was peaceful (as I feel a break should be).
Love your beautiful photo mosaics. Thanks for sharing them.
It would be so perfect to go the big expanse of the ocean today- Feeling claustrophobic in the winter house...bashing around in the cell that is my head- The city also gives some relief- thank you for the mosaic- much needed!
These are wonderful, wonderful mosaics, Kendalee. I love how you've put them together and how they create such a mood. Beautiful. – g
I so agree with Rilke on this. The sea always manages to soothe me, even when it is stormy. I love the greys in your mosaic - soothing, calming ...
These all fit the mood of my current environment -- I'm at the beach and it's been stormy. The light is muted, misty.
An absolutely perfect pairing of images and words...on both counts!
These are such amazing images and I just love how you've arranged them in these mosaics! Gorgeous! I love the feeling of calm that I get from the mosaic of the sea. ♥
