They have seen better days, but I particularly liked them.

Serene Meg – Lens Artists Photo Challenge #52 – Serenity
This week we are challenged us with:
Personally I find nature and its scenery of all kinds helps me to achieve serenity in this crazy world. What about you? What is it that helps you to find serenity in the face of growing chaos?
I find serene moments in many places, and while undertaking many pursuits, I guess in that respect I am lucky. The flip-side of this though is a sometimes chaotic mind, given to dwelling on things.
serenity – the state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled.
I find myself in this state when walking in nature, visiting ancient sites, when I am sewing or cooking, at times when taking and editing photos, when meditating, playing or composing music, or just after solving that niggling problem. In essence when I slow down, take stock, realise how blessed I am.
Below is a place that always makes me feel this way, a place where time slows for me, where I feel warm and loved, and for a brief moment I sometimes think I can understand what it all means!

One man and his dog – Kammie’s Oddball Challenge: June 20, 2019
Each week Kammie challenges us to post an oddball photo:
Odd Ball Photos are those great photos that you take which really don’t seem to fit into a common category. We’ve all taken them and like them, because we just can’t hit delete and get rid of them.

Eden, Curves, Lines, Angles. – Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Lines and Angles
A week ago today we were on holiday in Cornwall, and just about to embark on our first visit to the Eden project, surprising that we have never been given the amount of times we visit Cornwall.
Anyway we had a fabulous time, and I think this 5 photo stitch, fits the bill nicely for Cee’s brief of Lines and Angles.

Almost candid photographer – Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Candid
This week Cee asked:
“This week the topic is Candid Shots(human or animal). I want to see photographs unposed people, family, friends, pets, animals in the wild. I’m looking forward to what you all decide to post. ”
So here is an ‘almost’ Candid shot of Karen at Birkrigg stone circle in the Lake district, almost because I know she was aware I was taking shots around her.
Sticky – Weekly Photo Challenge – Monochromatic
This weeks WordPress photo challenge is that of ‘Monochromatic’, I think this fits the bill nicely.
It is a picture of a Stick insect that was living on a large plant at ‘Glendurgan’ gardens Cornwall, we were only alerted to its presence by the sign nearby, which asked, can you find the family of stick insects. Apparently they have been residents of the garden for a long while.
You can find other entrants for this competition here.
