Rainbow week this week. For red I found these markers on different bits of tree. The orange berries on the rowan tree didn’t make much of a picture so I photographed this day lily nearer to home. I would have liked to have had more time photographing the buttercups. I only took this photo. Somehow… Read More Friday Fotos
Today is Baby Week. I remembered to take my camera so I was able to get much better photographs. On the boating lake we discovered that all of the six coot babies were still alive. I didn’t manage to take a photograph of all of them but here are three with a parent. Further round… Read More Friday Fotos
Another day when I forgot my camera. Two many other things to remember like putting on sun block and taking water bottle. Yes it has been hot and sunny today.Only three of us.Of course I am here behind the phone! The family of coots were out on the boating lake.The council very kindly let this… Read More Friday Fotos
Remembered to take the camera but forgot to put the SD card in so was only able to take a few photographs. Made me a bit quirky. It was a lovely day though and only got better as the time went on. While I waited for my friends, I enjoyed these shadows. I just love… Read More Friday Fotos
After not getting out last Friday I was determined to have some photographs to share this week, especially as the weather forecast was good. However I forgot to take my regular camera and was left with my phone that was behaving in a very strange way. The extremely bright light was probably not helping either.… Read More Friday Fotos
I am not sure how much of a regular feature this will be but now summer is almost here and going out with a camera is easier since it is less likely to get wet; I thought it would be interesting to document what is happening on Southampton Common. Five photographs and you get this.… Read More Friday Fotos
What with issues with my hands and a certain festival coming up, I am not sure how much finished crafting I will have to show you for a while but in the meantime I thought you might like a little peek at some local photographs. This was taken a few weeks ago. It is not… Read More Colours of Autumn
I have mentioned this before in a couple of comments but I thought it deserved a post. As you can see it is about rainbows, or at least rainbow shaped designs, on trees. This is probably the Rainbow with the most professional look showing a doctor revealing himself to be superman. The rainbow contains the… Read More The Rainbow Trail
I went on the regular Southampton Common Health Walk this week and we extended the walk to go and see the wild orchids. As you can see they are quite small but beautiful none the less. here are some close ups. and and As you can see there is quite a variety of colouring on… Read More Wild Orchids
I suppose there are many ways one can interpet wild but the word reminded me the the last verse of Gerald Manley Hopkins’ poem “Iversnaid”: What would the world be, once bereft Of wet and of wildness? Let them be left, O let them be left, wildness and wet; Long live the weeds and the… Read More Photo Challenge – Wild
On Tuesday the weather started off a bit cloudy but by mid-morning it brightened up so we packed a picnic and went to the paddling pool on Southampton Common. Louisa had a paddleand then she saw that for a small cost you could have a few minutes moving around on the water in a large… Read More A Crafty Week – Tuesday
The other day the weather was so pleasant I thought that I would go for a walk and take my camera. I wasn’t sure what I would find to photograph because I was going up the road to Southampton Common and I have photographed it so many times before but I hope you enjoy coming… Read More Going for a walk
The other day the sun was shining and I decided to go for a walk on Southampton Common. I decided to concentrate on looking at the small things that one might otherwise miss and the first thing that caught my eye were the autumn leaves now white with the first real frost of the winter.… Read More The Common close up
Usually when I share my pictures with you I create a normal post interleaving the photogaphs with a narrative. This time I am trying out the new gallery format as an alternative. I would be interested in any comments you have as to whether you prefer this way of doing it. CLICK ON ANY PHOTO… Read More A winter walk
I knew that I wouldn’t have much to share with you of a crafting nature early this week so on Saturday I decided to go for a walk on the Common and take some autumnal pictures. At the start I was hopeful. But as I went to different areas, I realised that autumn was very… Read More Autumn?
