Every Saturday, participants posts photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday is WRINKLED.

The photo below was a part of a post I wrote in this blog a few months ago. The photo was a part of the storybook entitled “The Magic Train

The Land of Sweets where the trees are cotton candies and gumdrops and lemon drops are all over the ground. Here, the cotton candy trees have wrinkled paper on them.

__________________________________________________________________

One time, I left an orange in the fridge of my SIL. The orange I managed to put on the side of the door. Since their fridge was having some cooling problems, this was what I got:

The fruit had ice crystals when I got it. It was hard and wrinkled and very, very cold I felt my hands burning on too much coldness.

_______________________________________________________________

I love the moon, maybe because even if this was already explored by men, it still remains mysterious in in many different ways.

Below is a photo of the moon which I have been dreaming of capturing for a long time. I finally did, after I got the camera that blogging bought :)

Does this look like those smooth and fine freshwater pearls? I don’t think it is because this moon has some craters on the lower left part of the frame. Wrinkled, if you ask me, like marks on the face.

Why am I fascinated by the moon? Is it because the moon is the natural ruler of the sign Cancer, which is my Zodiac sign? I do not subscribe to this belief but I do know that the moon is one of the most mysterious heavenly bodies out there since it is the one nearest our planet :)

Have a great weekend everyone! Its gonna be another three-day weekend for us here in the Philippines because Monday is a holiday :)
