These are very familiar phrases, especially if you grow up watching Hollywood movies about the fairy tale of falling in love and getting married. There is nothing wrong with it, except the lavish notion people put into the idea of weddings but this post is not about that. I myself got married this year. So to the idea of something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue, here is my response to this week’s Lens-Artists Challenge No. 58:
#oldchurches #blueskies #somethingblue #somethingold
As I said that I got married this year. I definitely got something new, my new marital status, a husband, a new ring and a new married life ahead of me and my family. Notice the golden horse shoe, this is my “something borrowed” as this was borrowed to us by our wedding officiator saying that if newlyweds hold this, this will bring prosperity and good luck! Inshallah! God willing!
That’s it for me. If you are inspired to participate in this weekly challenge and be allowed to tickle your creative spots regularly, stay tuned using this link on how to do it https://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/lens-artists-photo-challenge/ and this week’s challenge was posted by Patti https://pilotfishblog.com/2019/08/10/lens-artists-photo-challenge-58-something-old-new-borrowed-and-blue/
First, congratulations on your marriage Gracy – wishing you many years of happiness. Second, lovely images for the challenge and third, love your tough love painting. Did you mean for the red swath to look like a heart stretched beyond endurance? If not, it’s a very happy coincidence. Nicely done.

Beautiful images, Gracy. I especially love your wedding photo and the horseshoe. I’ve never seen that symbol for good luck at a wedding, but it is perfect! Glad you joined us this week.
