I've received a few messages asking to continue the 1000 words thread. It has obviously given many people pleasure and some positivity. For anyone who doesn't know, posters come on with their photographs of pretty much anything and we take it from there. Nature is always a good one.
I cut some forsythia from a neighbourhood shrub. Blooming beautifully after a week in a vase. It's so nice to have a glimps of spring, we are having a cold snap here.
Ooh some very lovely photographs and clever collages. Beyond me I am afraid. I love your pond grandmajet, always wanted a pond ...with frogs. One year ago today we were on our way home from holiday in the Dominican Republic, discussing plans to return the following year as we had such an amazing time. Today I would be over the moon just to go to a gym class let alone one on a beautiful sunny beach.
Clever Lisagran, and wonderful grebe photos Greyduster, beautiful signs of spring Ellianne. I’ve just learned to post a single photo and am pleased with myself! Looking forward to this on our tiny pond later this year.
The grebe is my favourite water bird, but as soon as you zoom in on then they disappear under the water! Patience paid off yesterday, but the disappearing backside (photgraphed last year) is what I usually get!
Lovely to see some new contributors, thank you for your photos. Anything goes here - nature, memories, creative works etc. (Just as long as they're your own 1000 words.)
My last beach walk with Mya (dog) just before the first lockdown. Porth beach, Cornwall. It was more for me than her. She hates the water but likes to meet other dogs. It was so quiet. Don't think there were more than half a dozen people on the beach that day - 12 March 2020.
Ellianne what a beautiful thread. First time I've seen it. Agree the nature ones are lovely.
Namsnanny I do love a moss wall or stone. I took this photo on my walk through the Japanese Garden near Cornwall's Newquay Airport last September. It's about 20 min drive away. Hope to do something like it in our new garden this year.
Play spot the difference. The beach last week, the beach this week. Half term has brought the children out, and I for one am all for giving them some fun.
