   Serene ;  Undisturbed, calm 
 
 
       I've felt like I have been chasing my own tail around in circles this week (hence the cat image)  How do they do it? One second they can be bouncing of the walls and the next second their completely relaxed, not a care in the world. I want to be able to shift myself into that "not a care in the world" mode.  
 
     So Simon sez... show me Serene.   I need some " visual Valium"
 
      Up to three works apiece any media.  Simon will judge and announce the winner next Monday
 
 
 
 
                                                                                                " Prince Valium "

I took this pic from the airplane on my last trip back from Brazil... i like the pink clouds in the uppoer right corner.




And this was from a trip to Italy a few years back... there is a lot of bustling back and forth, but that waterway with the clouds above always spoke to me of peace.



And this was a little fella I found living in an old barn on the countryside in Puerto Rico. He was serne until I woke him up to take his picture. BUt, he quickly went right back to bed... :)



There you have three different ways that I find serenity. :) I'm looking forward to seeing other posts.

   Simon, after much deliberation has declared Steph the winner of this weeks " Simon Sez " ! 

There may have only been a few entries this week with each and everyone of them capturing the serenity I was hoping for, but Stephs beautiful frozen landscape blew me away.

   Congratulations Steph !!
