I am now getting to the stage, where a little sun would be really nice and maybe around 15c or so, not really ask for much,, but still you can see how things are growing and greening up. Looking towards the woods and you can see the canopy showing change, each time I go there just now, it is like looking for old friends.
This week at work, we started 3 people and by Thursday all gone, plus 2 others. One left from my dept, had been here for close to 20yrs. The place just got to him in the end.
Life is a funny old thing we all, have a different one of course. Over the last week, I got filled in on someone's life. Parts I had known, but other bits as well, we had history from over 45yrs ago, my first kiss and my first hand job. Tomorrow she heads back over the border to her home, She has a house in a wood, really nice looking place, by the pictures she showed me. She is a major taker of pictures on her phone. Never seen so many pictures of things on a phone, I treat mine like a camera , where I delete most after I kept with what I want, she thought it was so funny. She does want one of my pictures and I gave her the file. I have always wondered what this one will look printed and one day I might.
But as we talked last Sunday, it was when I got one of my favourites of all time. She asked me if, I had gotten any pictures and I just smiled.
I had another good week, for I did get another view, that has now been added to my favourites or all time as, the folder is named, The Ancients, as I call them is the subject, daffodils I have one too post at the end of todays blog.
Part of the challenge is that it is a climb to get there, very steep slope that I have slid down a few times over the years. I can shoot it from below, but getting close is what it is all about, I think this year, they are the best I have ever seen, I was lying here, taking the views in and I did think is Mother Nature sending me a message here in what she is sharing with me.
I then just walked further along the slope, until I eventually rise to the top of the gorge, walk on the path and then head down to the river to cross. I sat for a while sheltered from the bitter wind. Then it is a case of cross the river and climb back up the gorge, I did think, I am the only person, who actually even goes down or up here .
But one thing about this wind it sure does dry the land up quick.
Here is my Ancient's , I am thinking one day a little book maybe around 12 pictures only. The only thing with this one forgot to add my white border, that I have been adding I think that it makes the picture pop more, what does anyone think on that one.
