Strawberries and doughnut peaches

A very out of season picture but a little colour for this time of year. Those doughnut peaches are so delicious……………..

Plenty of rain

There has been plenty of rain this year. Some of my favourite pictures are umbrella ones, other peoples’ and my own if I can get a nice shot.

There has been ample opportunity this year………

These people were waiting for the Olympic torch earlier in 2012.. ..

Weekly Photo Challenge : surprise

This is about the surprise of something in a photo that you hadn’t realised would be there when you took the shot – it can be a good thing or a bad thing!

The swan popped its head up and I snapped a shot and only saw the water drops when I got home –

I was doing a rust shot and later saw the fine line of a dewy cobweb that I hadn’t really noticed at the time –

and then there is a dead fly that was on this mirror that if I had spotted it pre-photo I would have cleaned it off….. !

The cat post…

It had to happen sooner or later – the cat post!

Our cat chooses random sleeping spots often one that will collapse and let him slide to the floor any minute…

Weekly Photo Challenge :Delicate

All things delicate….

the attachment of this fungus to the bark of the tree

the  shadow on the painted white door

the twist of a stem supporting both flower and insect

and the stance of the terns on the cold railing.

Cats (Barcelona)

 

Sitting in a cafe and these cats were catching my eye and I wondered who painted them there in Barcelona.

I only took a couple of pictures from inside the coffee-house so the images are not great . I still know nothing more about them .  I like these cat images.

Pods

Interesting tree pods in silhouette. I am not sure what this tree is but the pods were a red brown colour and a nice curved shape.
