Over and Under
U is for UNDER
Heaven is under our feet as well as well as over our heads.
~ Henry David Thoreau
Castle in the air
If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundation under them.
~ Henry David Thoreau
Not cool, calm and collected
Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances.
~ Thomas Jefferson

I'd love to have a castle in the sky but I have to admit that I'm afraid of heights:)
I love the clouds in that first image!!
Beautiful photos! I especially loved the first one - so peaceful and serene!
made me smile. :)
Great photos with excellent quote choices!
I smiled too. :)
Wonderful pictures and matched so well with the Thoreau quotes.
Stunning first shot!
Beautiful shots EG!
Your first pic is as beautiful as a painting!
I see that , wherever they are, gulls are always shouting and groaning!:)
GREAT quotes, and wonderfully illustrated!
OH I LOVE your quotes and your photos. B
I love Your first photo- its the BEST. Just like painting !
Beautiful colour and composition in the first shot EG. Eagles nest? I like to think I am one of those cool calm and collected persons :) most of the time anyway!
Great photos for Alphabe and Rurality ^_^
There is a quality to your photos that I really like. Great shots and I enjoyed the quote too. Have a great day :)
Those gulls look like they're talking...and I want to climb into the first pic.
=)
Haha, I agree with Sue, they really do look like they're chatting away! Lovely captures all, I love the quality of light and the Thoreau quote!
Fabulous post EG! I wish I could be calm and unruffled all the time. ;-)
Got me smiling! The colors in that first shot are superb. The poor nest in the 2nd is about to blow away. Those gulls are just as noisy as are ours!
Cool post!
What? You don't like shopping??? That seems like a gender offense! :))
I LOVE these, especially "Not cool, calm, and collected!" What a great shot that is.
I hope you've had a wonderful day!

Nice quotes, and lovely photos. I like the thought that heaven is under our feet. So often we forget to look for beauty and joy in the non-obvious places.
U is hard....this was GREAT! :)
Last year I went to a park to get UNDER a covered bridge. This year I was scrolling through older posts hoping to find something to use, lol! Whew, I did...but I love yours with the pics and quotes etc.
Wonderful quotes and photos. I especially love the cloud formation and watery areas of the first shot. Your gulls cracked me up. I wonder who's fussing at who...
wonderful photos and great quotes!
thoroughly enjoyable post!
Look at you with your witty and creative use of 'under' - very nice!
Great photos and wonderful quotes!
The quotes are wonderful. I just love the first one. Your pictures are perfect for them.
Mr. Jefferson knows what he is talking about.
I love these and your outlook.
I really, really love that first shot!
Those birds! They're cracking me up. And I love, love, love that first Thoreau quote.
Your pics are Untoppable!
Love the sky in the first shot.
Images and words are beautifully matched. Especially like Thoreau's quote & accompanying capture!
Great post!
Beautiful snaps of birds and natural things increase the beauty image.
That's a beautiful sky shot!
Hi Ms. T.G. I had to see what you were 'under' today and found you nice surprise, it was over and under you, and nice winter picture. Thank you.
..
I love that Thoreau quote! Great shots to "back it up".
Brilliant photography
Lovely photos, those nests looks a bit precarious!
Really enjoy visiting your blog every week...you have such a good eye for great shots. Thanks for visiting my blogs♥ (Bear with Me and Ordinary Words)
I like the way you have paired your beautiful photos with quotes!
Wonderful photos!
seeing views like the first one always makes me want to be able to paint.
That first shot is a humdinger (they are all wonderful, of course!) A thoughtful post.
I love this shot... it looks like a painting... Thank you for sharing on 'Rurality Blog Hop #10!'
I love that Thoreau quote.
And that capture looks like a fine art painting!
This was a really unique and lovely post.
Thank you for linking.
