Yes, I’m looking forward to a day with some slower time!

Happy September everyone. Due to the summer heat and drought, some of the leaves are already showing signs of change 🍂 #bloomscrolling #leaves #nature
The lonely lighthouse 📷📸 For quite a while I had this stretch of beach to myself. I think this picture captures that feeling. #sharemondays2025 #landscapephotography #eastcoastkin #seascape

Ah, Martha. Sounds like a good plan! I am reading today from the Cairo Trilogy by Naguib Mahfouz. Looking forward to it!
Good morning Dwight! Glad to hear that you’re having cooler weather, and that you were able to see the wood stork while on your walk. I hope it continues to be a great day, and thank you for your kind wishes. You are always most welcome for the coffee ☕️ 😊
My pleasure, Linda Eve!
Good Morning Alina! Everyone gets to sleep in now and then! I hope you enjoy your relaxing day (and your hike!). ☕️ ✨ I am plodding along with this Cairo Trilogy. 350 pages out of the 1000. When I reach the end of this volume, I may take a break and switch to something else for a bit. 😊
Greetings to you, dear Jane! I hope you’re having a terrific day! 🥰 🌻 😘
Good morning Aleesia, and happy Monday to you! Yes, this should be a relaxing day, and I am having a wonderful morning, thanks! I hope you have a terrific day too! ☕️ 💙 ☕️
My pleasure, Steve!
Good Morning Ren and hallelujah! You’re in your new home! Congratulations 🍾🎉 All’s good here, thank you. We’ve still got ☕️ and lots of love! 🥰

Good morning Windflower! I also can’t get out on the streets, because of my crunched up back. Ah well. I hope others will be out there! Enjoy your day of relaxation!

The winner of this week's #ShareMondays2025 is @mickh5.bsky.social for his captivating image of dahlias through a polytunnel. This image is somehow both familiar & alien and it kept pulling me back. It is this intrigue that makes it a winner for me. Well done Mick. Over to you for next week.
I spent a couple of days in London last week and couldn't resist this shot of the iconic London Eye on the south bank of the river Thames. #ShareMondays2025 #FSPrintMonday #ThePhotoHour #BlackAndWhitePhotography #MonochromeMonday #LandscapePhotography
Borrowdale Valley in Shap last night as the sun faded away - awesome valley to walk up and along. #FSprintmonday #Sharemondays2025 #Appicoftheweek #lakedistrict #Cumbria @fotospeed.bsky.social
Shimmers on the Pier Image captured on a beautiful night down in North Berwick. The sky was brooding, and the light was shimmering. It was a beautiful place to be to take it all in. #sharemondays2025 #fsprintmonday #kasefilters #canon #leofoto #northberwick

Happy September 🌞 September has an amazing ability to make you fall in love with it gradually. While you are experiencing the departure of summer, September decorates the treetops hair, dims and shades the light, but makes the colors brighter 🌸 #ColorADay #PinkMon #MacroMonday #photography #flowers
Pinch punch for the first of the month and no returns for a buzztastic #MacroMonday #macro #macrophotography #photography Cab you believe it is already Sep.? Oh my days! The eyes, the antennae, the legs, the mandibles all #bee #WeekJforJetBlack 😊 Gotta get in a #weebee for #AlphabetChallenge 🐝😉
