  1. Way to go out with this one… another fine visual infusion of photos and creative lines. Thanks for your support, dani

  2. wow! This is brilliantly executed! I love her photography and am thrilled that you used all the images…woven together so well…what a dynamite tribute to the photographer, and the final One shoot Sunday!

    • thank you so much! ♥ i hope that Rosie isn’t offended that i used her photograph as the phantom, but no one said a phantom can’t be beautiful. {smile} i just couldn’t make up my mind which photograph to use. i really appreciate your visit and kind comment. ♥

  3. oh man…look what you did! i love this!

  4. Very creative calligram. It’s true that phantoms reveal their evil only in darkness. Well described.

  5. I loved both your words and the beautiful photos…thank you for sharing!

  6. yep – that’s what i do as well..howl at the moon and then walk into daylight..and there’s a smile on my face..thanks for all the encouragement dani – good to have people like you around…and i like this space twisting phantom…smiles

    • the photographs are phenomenal! i’ve been known to howl at the moon a time or two myself. {smile} thank you for all of the support and encouragement you’ve given me. i’m so grateful that you and Brian are starting dVerse! ♥

  7. Excellent work tying all these very diverse photos into a unified and striking whole–all in so few words. Expressive is an understatement. Good stuff on a sad day.

  8. Fabulous work, a finely tuned melody, all encompassing… beautiful!

    • thank you, Petrina! ♥ i really love your poem. congratulations on the interview at Jingle Poetry! i have to run now, but will comment on both as soon as i can. ♥

  9. Really effective construction.

  10. delicious…does she have fangs as well…ARRROOOOOO!! really like this one dani…

    and in your little 1, 2 punch…did i ever tell you you’re my hero…see you got me singing bette midler

    • happy you like it, Brian ~ thank you! um….i’m sorry for injecting that into the final One Shoot. OSP deserves the classy send-off the others gave. at least i toned it down from “why don’t you go fuck yourself” to “pulling the stick out of your butt” {giggle} i like Bette Middler ~ do you sing well?

  11. I love your play with the images.

  12. Masterfully produced. Thanks for playing along with the Sunday 160.

  13. Simply stunning – what else can someone say ???

  14. creative, well done.

  15. Quite the construction – you’ve got a thing for visual flare, dani.

    You’ve always been so supportive my friend, and so kind in your participation in One Shoot. It’s been a pleasure sharing this artsy section of the blogosphere with you, and I look forward to continuing to do so! One Stop may be over, but the creative labors go on, and so do the fine artists behind them. See you around, my friend – and especially thank you for the support on One Shoot today, in the face of certain bursts of I don’t even know what…guess I need to get a handle on my “testosterone” no? Heh, cheers!

    • thank you, Chris. i’ll definitely still be visiting everyone’s blogs. yes, please control your testosterone! it’s coming out of my monitor and i can’t make it stop! {giggle}

  16. A complete treat of words, expressions and presentation!!
    Very well done.. Lovely 160
    Hugs xox

  17. Dani, what an imaginative creator you are… superb writes.. loved them .. do visit to meet me in my words.. God bless!!

    • thank you, Ramesh! your free verse “There will be a new sunrise” said in much more detail as i said in “each day” ~ each new sunrise is a new beginning, isn’t it? i appreciate your visit and kind comment.

  18. Another fabulous masterpiece, dani!
