Sky

This week the challenge is 'Sky'. 

This photo was taken quite a while ago while on a walk along our local beach.  

The sun suddenly burst through the grey clouds quite spectacularly.

Something Important

 This week the theme is 'something important'.

These three little Guinea Pigs are important members of our family, 

so I wanted to take some photos of them that were better than the usual snapshots.

It was difficult - they wriggled a lot and had to have railings around the table to stop them falling off the edge!

The two girls are Blossom and Betsy...

...and this is our boy Bertie

September

 'September' is the theme for this week.

I have started harvesting some of the pears on our tree this week - 

it's been a good year for them.

I shall cook them up with ginger and add an oat crumble topping - a perfect winter treat!

Signs of Autumn

The challenge for this week is 'signs of Autumn'.

Rosehips in the garden are a sure sign that Autumn is on the way.

It seemed to happen quickly this year - one minute beautiful scented flowers and the next these stunning red hips.
