Come away with the raggle taggle gypsy-o
Or not as the case may be.
Jude’s theme this month is macro and I hoped to take some photos yesterday but the weather was dire. I’ve tried again on my way and when I got home from work. It was breezy, that’s my excuse anyway!
I wonder if you can tell which are phone shots and which are DSLR?
Jithin at Trablogger says,
This is a challenge created to find beauty in almost everything. The challenge is simple : find beauty in everyday mundane things, capture the beauty and upload the photographs.
I’m joining Jithin again with a mundane Monday photo, may be you will join in too?
My seven day nature challenge is over now, I really enjoyed it and if I had more time it’s something that I would love to continue. Meg was one of the people I nominated and she is watching spring unfold in Warsaw. This morning I saw her day six post from yesterday and I’m tickled by the idea that if she took her photos yesterday, we were snapping the same thing, on the same continent! Not such good photos as yours Meg, my eyes were on the toddlers, but what a coincidence.

For this week’s challenge, share a photo of a landscape: a wide establishing shot of a scene in nature or an urban setting. A simple theme you would think, but I don’t really do landscapes, I never feel that my lens is up to it. My entry is actually a phone shot, so doesn’t bear zooming in, but it’s quite pleasing nevertheless.
You can join in here, and see lots of really wonderful shots.
Perhaps mine is better in colour?
Today is my last of seven posts for the Nature Photo Challenge, began by Ulli, and passed to me by the lovely Amy. It coincides with my regular Thursday haiku, which I try to write based on the natural world, in the true spirit of haiku, so it made sense to combine the two.
Thanks to Amy, Ulli and my friends for joining in. If you want to take part in the challenge please run with it and enjoy!

Out of Africa once more, for day six of the nature photo challenge. This Weaver bird’s nest looks like a mix of art that you might find in a gallery, and practicality in the form of a basket.
Amy challenged me, but as yesterday, I’m not going to challenge anyone in particular, although Jo, the restless one, did show an interest in taking part. So if you haven’t had an invite yet, and you want to take part, go ahead and enjoy.
Day five of the nature photo challenge that Amy, The World is a Book, invited me to join. I thought something related to the beach would be a good idea, and then I remembered this rock pool photo, full of shadows and reflections.
I’m running out of victims uh friends to invite to the challenge. Several of you run your own challenges, that keep you busy – you know who you are, and so I’ve decided to throw it open to anyone who would like to take part. Just share a nature related photo, each day for seven, and enjoy!
I’m back in Devon for day four of the challenge that Amy passed to me. The idea is to post a photo every day for a week and pass it on to a friend.
I have many favourite birds, but the thrush is very high on my list, I think because they are not only pretty, but they look intelligent as well, don’t you agree?
I’m choosing Pauline to challenge today, she has a birds eye view of the birds in her garden down under, as well as wonderful tropical plants. No worries if you’re busy Pauline, but I’d love to see what you come up with!
