hello, friends! sorry to stray away, but my hubby finished 30 rotations around the sun yesterday. hence, i have been busy whipping up tantalizing treats & trying to catch the wiley old geezer to administer his birthday spankings! for being such a fossil, he's pretty dang quick, lol. although it gave me great & immeasurable joy to share this milestone with him, i have to admit it was coupled by sadness, as i now have to come to terms with letting go of my young-buck-mowing-lawns-after-school-for-spending-money-fantasy (shirtless, natch!)...ah ha ha ha ;)
anyway, before i get dickstracted, let's get back to the photo. i realize that we were visiting versailles "for a spell", but you know how easily distracted i am (LOOK...SKITTLES!!!). my attention was momentarily diverted when i uncovered this beauty in my archives, & the rest, as they say, is history!
this is probably the most captivating church i have had the opportunity to capture. the decay & the gloom instantly won over my heart, but then when the sun was setting & started peering thru the stained glass, i was absolutely smitten!!! the decomposing giant was awakened & it's windows transformed into yellow eyes glowing in the dusk. their putrid glare cast a spell on me that left me rooted to the spot. in fact, i was so mesmerized that i was oblivious to the bitter wind licking at my raw fingers, which were continually exposed in my insatiable quest to digitally immortalize this breathing adonis of rot...aaahhh, bliss :) :) :)
uh-oh, it's getting late...tune in tomorrow for more documentation on my demented desires ;)
