IN my life, how many times, have a walked by these trees, this might even be the first time, I have taken there picture, just getting what is right and you see a vision, click and the memory is captured.

But this year the colours were truly amazing.

Seasons changing is like a reflection on life and how things change as well. My pictures over the years have told many stories, not in what you see, but in what you do not see. Very seldom, do I actually just take a snapshot, those are just the candid things, For the most part I shoot in projects now.

You could say, that this blog has been my longest running project, it has taught me a lot. I have posted close to a thousand pictures on here, yes I have 1 left now, well 2 after this one and I promise that for the next 215 days, will not be deleting any. in 215 days this project might be over or we might just head onto another chapter in it.

Back when i was Whokens, starting off these writings , 15 years ago or so, there was no plan, still none, I did plan the blog, as I worked a lot of the time, some of my work was so tedious that it got me through it. Maybe I will ask for my old Whokens account back, thought about that but more likely a new start, even got a new name all figured out.

I only have 10.5 days to work this year, I am now officially a 4 day a week worker again and have also cut 5 hours of my week as well, it is time to start now thinking about the day when I will stop working, well for an employer anyway. I could see me getting a little gardening thing going, just for pocket money, work in the summer and then have the winters off.

That picture is 2 of 3 that I have to post, now that river was running high, I could not get too where I really wanted to stand and I never stand on the edge, when we have a spate running, you just never know if the bank below you might give way.

So till the next time. Smile.

This Autumn was another nice one, with some wondaful colour in the woods, I even got one or two landscape images that I will keep. My fungi photography has been great as well, , how I wish I had discovered the joy of this when I was in my 20's but it was not the time then, each phase in life is like it is for a reason, it all leads to the point where I am now.

Sometimes, I wonder exactly where that is, as much as i lead such a simple life, I am told I am so complicated, I know I am not easy in some ways, but I am a good person, a very good person actually. I use to wonder why I never fitted in, but see it more like I was never actually meant too, happy within myself for the most part, sure sometimes I wish that some things from the past had worked out, well only one really.

I never got good news about my eyes the other day, my vessels in my left eye are leaking so more injections at a stronger rate this time, I was down, till i just done my usual and processed it, end of the day, I can see, so a small price to pay really and well people get a lot worse news than I did.

I only have 14 more days to work this year, I look forward to my holiday.

I had a bit of a writers block, for the first time in life, I really new it was a real thing, I never even wrote my own daily diary or any other jottings for close to a month, but the other day, the one that sits on my desk was just saying, ok it is time to write and for the next while I did and have from then on, probably hence, I am even doing this blog.

I got asked the other week, when giving a talk, where i got my desire for photography and I answered by posting pictures to a blog I wrote on an adult site..

My talks are finished now, enjoy them but sometimes, you only have so much too say.

I have just over 200 days of premium left, gives me plenty of time to decide my next step here. Because I can not verify. I am quite limited in what I can do, so like another subscription I cancelled after 20 odd years, just something that I have time to think about.

I did get a notification saying someone had winked at me, that was a first, that is the first interaction from another member in maybe over 6 months lol..

Well enough for now.
