I think this makes an interesting image.....any ideas what it is?
Now you can see......its a close up of the roots of a fallen tree we came across when walking around a lake whilst on holiday in Cumbria with friends Bob and Janet

Cappuccino

Who can resist a beautifully prepared cup of cappuccino.......just how they manage to get the designs on them eludes me but it makes for an interesting picture......and did you notice the cream slice just in the corner? I am told on good authority that both were a special NO FAT variety !!!!!! Memories of a lovely day in Wales visiting Kerry.

Winter Dinner Party

Those cold nights when we were happy to snuggle up by the fireside behind closely drawn curtains, seem so long ago after such a glorious summer. I thought that this picture taken at a dinner party this winter had that special something that brought back memories of those cosy evenings.

Winter wasn't so long ago !!

I thought that as we are now sweltering in 32 degrees ( hotter than most of the continent ) that it would be rather nice to view this picture I took back in January. It shows the Norfolk Broads completely frozen over, and reminded me of Shackleton's ship trapped in the ice when he was exploring for the elusive North West Passage.

A woodland walk

Woodland walks are always special. They give one a feeling of discovery, as if you are the first person ever to have walked that path. There is a special feeling of peace and serenity that pervades such places and, having passed through, one feels strangely refreshed but also invigorated by the experience.
This particular view was taken
in Bermuda, high ( by Bermudian standards ) above the Atlantic Ocean , that can just be seen through the trees.

After the rain

This picture was taken in Bermuda shortly after a torrential downpour, but as the temperature was so warm, it dried up almost immediately. The skies still have the storm clouds but by now they are emptying themselves into the sea beyond.This beautiful tree covered with its bright crimson flowers looks unreal......as if red paint had been poured on to its green leaves, but the picture is completely untouched. Bermuda is the prettiest island I have ever seen and more pictures will certainly follow. By the way, double clicking on any of the pictures will make them full screen size.
