Word-of-Day-Challenge-Oppulent

opulent
ostentatiously costly and luxurious.
Whilst in Europe we visited…
…several places similar to Versailles Palace.
Our universal comment was that with
this amount of opulence, it was…
…no wonder there had been a revolution.

Word-of-Day-Challenge-Jocular
~~~~~
jocular
fond of or characterized by joking; humorous or playful.
The mood was one of jocularity and thankfulness
about eleven years ago…
…when our boys decided to present their
Grandfather (Father-In-Law)
with a wig for his birthday.
He had been undergoing chemotherapy
and did not have much on top at the time.

Word-of-Day-Challenge-Original
~~~~~
original
created personally by a particular artist, writer,
musician, etc.; not a copy.
Like most other bloggers my photos are my originals,
posted as low resolution copies on WoollyMuses.
This zebra, shot in Kruger National Park, South Africa,
was the first of my photos ever to be sold.
And this image of my guitar is
the only one to adorn our walls.

Word-of-Day-Challenge-Ephemeral
~~~~~
ephemeral
lasting for a very short time
My first ephemeral thoughts turned to rainbows.
They are never the same and
the pot of gold is so elusive.
The cattle may be the pot of gold in this shot.
This rainbow appeared as I was returning to my car.
I had time to grab a camera and take
three or four hand held shots
before this rainbow disappeared.
Barely two minutes in total.

Word-of-Day-Challenge-Alive
~~~~~
alive
(of a person, animal, or plant) living, not dead.
alert and active; animated.
While Candi may appear to be full of life while playing fetch.
She only fetches this piece of rope,
although she will chase an apple,
which when caught is promptly eaten.
However, after five to ten minutes of frenetic activity
she is only too willing to join
the Golden Labrador’s Association
in deep sleep, dead to the world,
until her energy is restored.
