Enjoying a sense of peace one stitch at a time
This week’s theme is “Wild” and there are so many interpretations for this theme I thought I’d choose a couple of different ones.
First up is an aboriginal man who reminds me of an indigenous version of the “Wild Man” of Borneo 😉
Then we have a “wild-eyed” crazy man in the band at The Cuckoo in Melbourne.
And lucky last, we have a “wild ride” Egypt-style … trekking into the Valley of the Kings.
This week’s theme is “String(s)” and even though the photography isn’t great on this one, I thought this photo fitted the theme well. This is a scan of an old photo I took years ago on a visit to Paris on a point and shoot – I love all the ‘strings’ (wires) hanging in symmetry in this shot. I’d love to be able to take this photo again with a better camera and a different angle to crop out the background trees … maybe if I get keen I’ll attack it in Photostop Elements one day 😉
This week’s theme is “Beautiful” and I had loads of choices of photos this week – the word “beautiful” evokes so many feelings …
After debating between many floral and scenic photos, I decided on my very favourite subject, and a photo I haven’t published before. Of course this beautiful creature is my favourite on earth, and one reason for my blog name … this little duck was taken on the shores of Lake Emerald, Melbourne. In fact, I may just have to crop him and use him for my blog header at some stage hmmm … 🙂
This week’s theme is “Cloud(s)” and instead of hanging outside in all weathers trying to find some decent cloud shots, I’ve decided to choose a photo that wasn’t actually of the clouds, but a lighthouse, but where the sky and clouds really appealed to me when I uploaded it. I’ve cropped the clouds out on their own … then followed with the original shot.
Also, here’s a shot looking back from the other side of the lighthouse.
This is the lighthouse from Lighthouse Beach, Port Macquarie, NSW Australia.
And to finish, here’s a shot of the city’s night lights reflecting off the clouds of Hong Kong harbour – we got very used to seeing those clouds, in fact I don’t remember a blue sky at all during our visit!
This week’s theme is “What IS that?” and quite frankly I’m stumped with what to use … rather than not post anything at all, however, I’ll show you this photo …
As for what it is? It’s called a Dragonfruit … to be honest I personally think it tastes bland and very very uninteresting – I’ll try most things once if they intrigue me, but this will definitely stay on the “once” list! Unless of course anyone can give me tips on how to eat it – we ate it raw as it is … ho-hum …
