January monthly mosaic

January monthly mosaic
Well, I’m a few days late, but I couldn’t really do a mosaic until the month of January was officially over, now could I? The Monthly Mosaic color for January was dark red, with the theme of health and committment. It turns out I had four photos for the mosaic without even planning it. I took the pomegranate photo on New Year’s Day. I always broke one open when I lived in Greece to usher in a prosperous year. While I no longer live there, it is still a fun and tasty tradition. My word for 2012 is COMMIT, which couldn’t have been more appopriate for this challenge! The barn photo is one that I processed with the intention of depicting the place a witch might live. It signifies imagination for me; something vital to my health and happiness. The umbrella photo is what I used in the inaugural post of the new photo collaboration with Vivienne McMaster and Deb Taylor over at She is Three. The final photo shows rose hips I saw on one of my walks. It is essential for me to have time to wander in the woods and reconnect with nature.
