I've always thought of myself as a fairly relaxed person until I tried to sit still and breathe. The first time I tried it, I got in three deep breathes and then panic set in. My body was telling me "enough", get up and get moving. A couple of days of practise and I can now get in five. A ways to go, but practise does make perfect, right?
On to my Friday Find of the week. I was cleaning out the fridge and found a few lemons, some in great shape and a couple not so. I drink a lot of water and when I have the time, love to have a few lemon slices with it.
I thought after looking at the lemons through the lens, I needed a little bit more color and added a bit of chopped basil. The basil added a bit of a twist to the flavor and it might be my new go to drink.
Thanks for visiting. Hope your week has been good and have a great weekend.

Excellent light on these gorgeous lemons!
Beautiful. I have that same lemon juicer. I have a thing for them.
A lovely still life, the pop of green just makes it...
lovely image. the basil sounds good. I like water with cucumber slices in it. It sounds funny but it tastes very good, especially when it's hot out.
Liking the sound of basil and lemon flavoured water. It sounds so healthy. All the best, Bonny
Lemon is always tastes good in water! Yours look great in your image too, love your processing.
I just love this image. It conveys stillness.
Lovely picture. I can't drink lemon water myself, it makes my throat close up. Very disappointing as it's supposedly excellent for the health.
A very inspiring photo. A lovely soft feeling.
I love the polka dot straw peaking through the lemons!
Love the lemon yellow against the dark backdrop - beautiful!
Totally love your set up! The basil and the pop of red in the straw is gorgeous!
This has such nice light and composition. I love fresh lemons too!
I have a hard time sitting still and breathing as well. The yellow against the dark background...wonderful!
This took my breath away. I would love to see it as a painting. It looks so natural. Not forced at all.
I sort of had the same experience. The more I try to relax, I feel a kind of panic! Love the dark background that contrasts to nicely with the yellow!
Hmm, I never thought of adding basil to lemon. Might have to try that one of these days! I love basil and I love lemons.
Wow! Gorgeous!!!!
I love the freshness of lemons...and you captured that in this photo...I am smiling because citrus is the prompt for this weeks Be Still class...you were way ahead of Kim on this one...
Very nicely done.
