night    enshrined...
cuddling quietude

Dear Nette, Congrats on POTD. Such a soft exhale at the end of a long day. You managed to tuck so much peace into such a small space almost like a gentle pocket of stillness we can carry around. Beautifully done. Autumn Blessings, Nette, Daniel

Was this also for one of Line's contests? If so, I imagine that's two winners 'for the price of one.' Congrats, Nette. ~ Gershon
