It’s getting cold around here and I’m staying warm with a soft fleece jacket and soft fluffy socks. All this softness got me looking through my photos to find images that fitted the theme. Here’s what I came up with:
A cheeky red cardinal in New York’s Central Park
The softly-coloured stained glass windows of the Actor’s Chapel in Manhattan
A mound of shea butter waiting to be sold by the scoop at a street market
Delicate grasses around Snug Harbor on Staten Island
A bunny in Alley Pond Park, Queens. It doesn’t get much softer than this!
So what does soft mean to you? If you’d like to join in this week’s travel theme (everyone is welcome to join in), here’s what to do:
- Create your own post and title it Travel Theme: Soft
- Include a link to this page in your post so others can find it too
- Get your post in by next Thursday, as the new travel theme comes out on Friday
- Don’t forget to subscribe to keep up to date on the latest weekly travel themes
Show me your soft side!

Where's my backpack? 
I guess I should say the bunny is my favourite but the first shot of the bird is outstanding 🙂
The red cardinal is a wonderful shot, but the grasses win my vote!

Beautiful! Late to the game, but we have three this week that are soft for different reasons (focus, color, tone), from 3 of our contributors…
Greece: http://brokenlightcollective.wordpress.com/2012/11/12/colors-at-sunset/
Cali: http://brokenlightcollective.wordpress.com/2012/11/13/haunted-by-death-not-yet-realized/
Florida: http://brokenlightcollective.wordpress.com/2012/11/11/simple-moments/
P.S. We haven’t participated in a while, but the Greece shot I linked to above is so perfect for last week’s theme BRIGHT, and the Cali one is perfect for SPOOKY!! Great themes:)

Extraordinary beautiful red cardinal bird.
Thank you.
I don’t think I have the time to come up with a post for this week’s theme so I’ll try my hand at the next one. Great photos!

i’ve been missing your lovely challenges for some reason Ailsa, but couldn’t resist a couple of soft shots from my glorious two months in Venice some years ago. http://thewanderlustgene.wordpress.com/2012/11/15/my-soft-spot-for-venice/
Just saw it, Wanderlust, ahh, I just love Venice. Beautiful, soft, dreamy shots – and I can just feel the softness of that last photo 🙂
I’m glad I got a few in this week at least – but they did seem perfect 🙂
