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.
Looks like a job well done...I think the next tool needed is a...Brush..! :).
ReplyDeleteAnd..nice to read the roses on the previous page were going in the ground, and not in a silly vase on a window sill...Though, l'm not a great fan of roses, l've always called them false flowers, what with hidden thorns and all, l'm a lover of pansies..(don't laugh)..closely followed by Orchids...! :).
the hedge was a bit brutal, but necessary - we'd been waiting for the go-ahead for months, and the block had waited years before that for a gardener willing to take it on. Now they can see their parking spaces again!
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile the flowers on the previous post were not roses, but ranunculus - tender annuals about 6 inches high, no thorns just radiant beauty in bold bright colours, with soft ferny leaves. Not the most robust of plants, but a seasonal favourite of mine! :)
