TAKE A WORD 25 - TRAVEL

Our word for inspiration this week at Take a Word is TRAVEL and that got me thinking about what I spied from my bedroom window the other night when I couldn't sleep.  It was the strangest traveling machine I had ever seen and sitting atop it was a naked woman muttering : thank goodness for an extra pair of hands or two at a time like this!  Mmmmmm.

Credit to FinecraftedDesigns for the blended backgrounds, the woman, the flying machine blades and the circles, Honey Designs for the luggage, whilst the 'helping hands' are my own photos of a sculpture In Mandela Gardens in Leeds, UK.

Thank you for the inspirational word Marie and thank you all for looking.

    I want some of what you're on, Ann!!!! There's been a lot of strange goings on in your neck of the woods of late maybe it's the excitement of the upcoming 'big do!" Anyway this is a 'right royal' masterpiece, spectacular!!

    Oi, this amazing artpiece nearly did me head in - but in a nice way, of course. The lady's clothes are obviously still in the suitcase but she can't reach them. What a superb flight of fancy. I love it.

    What an amazing imagination! Your art work is splendid. However, I do suggest that you cut back on whatever you ate or drank right before you went to bed! LOL!
