Day Thirteen

Jewels

The sun is back! But I found this glistening web at the end of the garden and couldn't resist taking a shot.

There were bugs and blooms all around today but it was the web that I wanted to pick for today's shot.

Day Twelve

In spite of the weather

Another grey and rainy day here but my first poppy wasn't going to be deterred by the weather.

Day Seven

The Day of Jam

So, over the course of today the 10kg of strawberries were turned into jam, ice cream and a pie.

The house smells amazing and the hardest part now is waiting for the pie to cool down enough to taste it!







In other news, the rosebud bloomed today! Hooray!

Day Three

Nearly

Today was a hectic day and it meant taking photos was the last thing on my list today.

I'm in the throes of trying to boost my photography business and today was a day of marketing and website updating and all sorts of fun things like that. Fun but not very good subject matter for photos.

There was also kite making and flying with my little ladies but of course, wielding a home made kite doesn't really leave any hands free for taking photos so, my apologies, it's another shot from the garden today.

I found a bud! (Actually I found five!) Looks like I'll have roses if nothing else this summer!

Day Two

Sunlight

Something a little more abstract for today.

The horrible weather means this summer has been a bit of a slow starter for my garden. My sweet peas and sunflowers are making a valiant effort but I think it'll be well into August before we see anything from them.

But, the little wild corner I have with some grasses and field flowers is coming along nicely and the sun this evening was just perfect to take some shots.
