... is where I need to lay my head - at least for one day. Our jaunt to Florida came to a safe conclusion today - approx. 2,500 km/1,500 mi later, and 23 hours of driving, including the necessary stops for quick relief and sustenance. Sorry to say that with such a schedule, I could only memorize the scenes I thought might warrant a photo under different circumstances.
So tonight I'll just leave you with a view of the softness and gentle fragrance that will envelope my head ... in my dreams, of course.

I know what that kind of driving is like! Well, at least you had company.
Glad your travels were safe!
Night!
:)
Love the photo and hope it serves as a wonderful pillow for travel recovery! Welcome home and, I too, am glad you made it back safe and sound.
Beautiful photo. I'm glad that you had a safe journey. Did you and your wife switch off driving? That's quite the trek.
Sweet dreams Rick.
oh my god tous ces kilomètres !! too much !
mais cette couleur orange est pleine de
tonus et d'énergie !! hop Rick ! on continue ??

Well that is a long drive but a road trip with only your wife by your side must be just lovely! I would love for my husband & I to be able to escape, just the two of us and worry about nothing but us and the road that lay before us. I reckon it would be bliss!!! Have fun then sleep well!
Glad you're back safe and sound, well a question mark behind the sound ;). Anyway this is one absolutely gorgeous rose.
so glad you arrived safely.
love the dreaminess of your photo.
sounds nice & i hope you had as nice a trip as can be expected.
Now, I wonder what story we could find in this shot Rick?lol
Simple, soft, velvety, ORANGE! = beautiful.
Congratulations!
Alex.
Looks like a perfect Wallpaper . . .

@becky - thank you Becky; I'm quite used to marathons. driving, that is !
@Carolyn Ford - thank you Carolyn - I slept like a log last night !
@darlin - thanks Darlene; nope - I do the driving, she does the navigating - works well that way; we go till the car needs gas - then it's rush to the washroom, take the dog out, and carry on for another 4 hours or so (you need a strong bladder to ride with me ;-)
@marty - oui, a very long drive - but in the end, worth it ! And we had enough energy to make it. Merci Marty et bisous de Florida !
@Katherine - it's a long drive over 2 days; we also did it in February and we expect to go back in mid-Dec AND come back down again in mid-Jan (a lot of driving just to escape winter ;-) It is nice to do together, however - few distractions !
@Scott - thank you Scott - for your well wishes and positive comment. We relaxed today. ;-)
@Chas - thank you Chas ! I did some experimenting with the shots till I got the effect I wanted (I don't have PS so it's mostly SOOC)
@Tricia - thank you Tricia; the trip was uneventful - just the way we like it ;-)
@imac - the theme of the story would be dreaming, mac. As in dreaming of a nice soft pillow on which to drop one's head ! which is what I did.
@Alexander DeLarge - thank you Alex.
@CarreraCaballo - maybe I'll change my desktop look; thank you Joseph !
An abstraction very good, great quality of orange. I love it.
lovely soft curves and lines..
....bonjovi...wonderful. Love this bed of roses. And you sure got me head over heels with this one Rick.
I kan gewoon geen woorden vinden die goed doen aan deze foto...man wat ben jij goed in het maken van bijzondere opnamens.
I'm jealous.
Warmest hugs ever Dagmar
@Leovi - thank you Leovi !
@Hope - I love how images like this can be created - not seen with the naked eye; thanks Hope !
@Barefoot from Heaven - dank je wel Dag ! I love to make images like this - they become almost surreal. But you have nothing to be jealous of - your photography is wonderful, and especially that of people !
