After our walk in Big Wood, Eddy took us out in his trusty van to the shop for some bits and bobs, and just down the road was a nest on top of a telephone post, home to a pair of storks on the way back to the house we stopped to visit the Beaver Dam which was quite amazing to me as I’d never seen one before. They’d diverted a little stream that runs along the side of the road and made a huge pond You can see the damage they are doing to the trees There were some pretty…
A colouring book is a type of book containing line art to which a reader may add colour using crayons, coloured pencils, marker pens, paint or other artistic media. Traditional colouring books and colouring pages are printed on paper or card. Some colouring books have perforated edges so their pages can be removed from the books and used as individual sheets. Others may include a story line and so are intended to be left intact. Paint books and colouring books emerged in the United States as part of the “democratization of art” process, inspired by a series of lectures by…
We had a visit from Shelley and the kids this afternoon so I took a few pictures of Liddy, just love the punk hair 🙂 also the theme was ‘sport’ in the Sunday challenge group, so I did one of my old 10~pin bowling trophies from days of yore. and finally, the colour shot today.. Analogous colors are any three colors which are side by side on a 12 part color wheel, such as yellow, yellow-orange,orange. Usually one of the three colors predominates.
We have had our grandkids Callum and Liddy for a sleepover this weekend, so everyone was inveigled into helping me finish my shadow shots this month. This the one from yesterday and watching in the wings and before today’s shot, some of the kids And this is my last shadow shot Next month is Colour month. 🙂
It was Fathers day today, so Shelley & Carl and their kids all came round , and helped me with my shot for today 🙂
I has a little helper to do my shot with today, as Shelley came for a visit with Cal & Liddy. It was lovely and sunny so we sat in my studio (which is really our conservatory) and I took some shots of Liddy as well as inveigling Cal into doing my shot with me. That’s the daily shot and bless him Cal doesn’t even like chewy sweets so no reward, but we played lego instead. I took some shots of Liddy too so am including a couple of my favourites. That’s all folks 😉 ❤
Well that’s Christmas over and done with, just New Year to go. It’s been a good week. On Monday I woke up to an amazing sunrise when looked out the window, had to get the camera out quick! On Tuesday I had a lovely drive up to the Scottish borders, amazing scenery, but a fair bit rainy. On my way home the moon rose and I got a couple of shots with the iPhone. Phil has been working hard on his model Tiger tank, and Skye has been his constant companion 🙂 It’s been nice to have some time off…
Already a week in September has gone by and I’ve not yet got round to finishing August photographs. I have been away to a military model show in Scotland this weekend, and of course have photo’s from that! But I still want to post the photo’s of my little family down south from last weekend. It was great to see my son Ben and my grandson Lewis, who just gets cuter every time I see him 🙂 We had a day out at Milton Keynes, the shopping centre to start. Then we went off to Wirral Lake to the playground…..
Thought I would have a break from all the history lessons 🙂 and post some up to date stuff as it was Fathers Day today, and Phil’s son & daughter and all the Grandkids came round to see him. Not often we see them all together, and it is great fun to see them in action.
