One Shoot Sunday, February 6

This weeks Oneshoot Sunday photo prompt comes to us by way of a fellow Canadian photographer.
Sean McCormick's work is amazing, and well worth checking out.  The image below has prompted some wonderful inspiration, that I'm happy to share.  Visit Onestop Poetry to see the work of some fantastic writer's inspired by the pic below.

Deep in the Red Foothills of Blue



The glow of the fires
Warming
Despite the slivers
of stabbing rain
Deep in the red
Foothills of blue

The flicker of secrets
Trapped
In the dancing
Of hot candle flame
Deep in the red
Foothills of blue

Tucked safely away
Hiding
From conformity
The need to be the same
Deep in the red
Foothills of blue

There is energy
Thriving
Despite of demands
In life's wicked game
Deep in the red
Foothills of blue.
2011-Natasha Head

Like how you describe it as a hide out, a refuge from conformity. Also like how the colors come together in your refrain. Nice write and interpretation of the prompt, Natasha
