Cactus Pottery

Tubac Arizona

Another Memoir Container (in Metaphor)

Here is another photograph of pottery to announce another article on collecting memories and assembling them into a multimedia memoir.

The second article is on Memoir Space at the Calm Space website, and it tells you how to find your personal writing muse using your favorite search engine. Really! It works. Grab on to those memories and fill up the nearest container.

This cactus pottery was seen on an adobe window in the town of Tubac, a few miles south of Tucson. I love how it appears to have a palo verde tree growing out of the container.

Rather metaphorical, like memoirs that can grow from writing just a few words every day.

Love that photo! Simply lovely and great composition. I’ve clicked over and looked over the article at Memoir Space. I’m interested in something like this. I bookmarked this and will read more tomorrow morning when I am rested.

The look through hole is a great visual.

Bo,

I don’t know how I missed this one… it’s probably because even in the 21st century, we’re still stuck on dial-up and I didn’t wait for your entire front page to load.

It’s a classic composition and I love the soft focus of the background. Ya gotta love the colors of the southwest. :)
