Hello, and thanks for visiting! A couple of months ago a good friend nominated me in one of those Facebook challenges you may have seen doing the rounds - 7 black and white photos over 7 days from your ordinary life, excluding people and pets, posted without explanation. I accepted the challenge, and enjoyed the process so much that I was soon wondering how I could extend it. This blog is my answer. The photos won't always be in black and white - I've long understood how important colour is to me - but I plan to adhere to the other rules of the challenge for a full 365 days and, in doing so, tell the story of the next year in my life. Knowing how I struggle with discipline, especially self-discipline, I imagine this process will throw up quite a few challenges for me but hopefully that will all be part of the growing and learning process. There will be little or no explanation posted, though I'll be happy to chat in the comments, and I hope you find something here to enjoy.
Well...that view is certainly a lot better than the view through the Paddington Bear curtains in my daughter old room, where my 'pink' PC proudly sits..!
ReplyDeleteGoodness! I would'nt move from this area for all the tea in China, if it has'nt already been drunk...I love the country side, the trees, flowers etc...Flowers in the hedge rows..growing wild, and not cut, and put in some silly looking pot on a windowsill..cutting their life span by a half...Sacrilege..!!! :(.
As they say...'Diamonds are Forever'...
Song there..somewhere...! :).
It's Kingston Lacy, Willie, not so very far from you! Now and then the three of us go on a works day out to a garden to try to make sure we stay enthused and inspired.
DeleteToday was snowdrop day and it was a real blessing. I've been feeling a bit low on and off recently, but the sunshine, crisp air and these brave little beauties really lifted my spirits. It was such a bright day and they were nestling in the grass sparkling like diamonds - reminding me what I want to try to do more of again!
