One more to give an idea of the size.
My knee was really bad yesterday so today I decided to take things easier and see if it will settle down again. I did get some ironing done this morning and a couple of household chores, and a slow walk to the local shop.
I made a card for a friend who has very limited vision, he is an Arsenal fan so hoping this is eye catching enough.
I sat out in the garden this afternoon and die have a wander round dead heading pansies and pulling a few weeds. Took another picture of the sea holly with a bee, this bee is showing it’s white bottom!
It was quite hot out there so my cap with the big brim came in handy!
I did take the camera out and it turned out to be a wood pigeon day! I didn’t use the monopod so that are not too bad considering, especially as it was swinging wildly on the hanging tray.
This picture of the summer house shows just how tall the teasel plant has grown, the teasels are forming now.
In the front garden the first spiky yellow flower is opening. Masses of buds so this will look amazing in a couple of weeks.
The greater sea kale are looking fantastic.
When I was filling the cans ready to water the bonsai trees took a picture of the sky, as you do!
An evening in front of the tv now!
Sounds like a varied day for you, but good that you’ve taken it easy for a change. You’ve certainly not been inactive though.
ReplyDeleteI think the decoupaged dishes look really nice. Perfect for lots of pairs of earrings to sit in 😊
I think the card has turned out really well. Considering you’ve made it from scratch you’ve got plenty of detail in it. He’ll like that.
Is that your Lewis Hamilton cap? Not sure if he still drives for Mercedes. I’m a bit behind the times. As long as it kept the sun off, that’s the main thing. So much for the rain we were supposed to see all day down here. One little shower was about it, and scorching the rest of the time!
The flora and fauna in the garden all looks really nice as usual. Quite a funky sky to finish with too.
Hope the “taking it easy” today pays off and the knee feel a bit better tomorrow.
Yes it is my Lewis Hamilton hat, good brim on it.
ReplyDeleteGlad I thought of the Arsenal shirt, that is quite distinctive.
The little trays would make good earring dishes.
As you say, I am not short of things to photograph outside.
Fingers crossed the knee will be easier tomorrow.
