I decided to take some ‘proper’ photos of some of our decorations today. Yesterday’s photos were taken on my phone, and these are taken on my camera. My phone is great for a quick photo, but if you’re trying to get certain things in focus and others not, you really need to use a proper…… Continue reading Christmas Bokeh

On the Hook, 21/11/20
This week (well, 2 weeks really as I didn’t update last week), the Diamonds not Pearls jumper has grown, and I’ve made a bauble. Here’s the jumper: Won’t be too long until I reach the bottom and will move on to the sleeves. The texture is lovely: Yesterday I came across Lilla Björn’s new CAL…… Continue reading On the Hook, 21/11/20
Festive Wishes

Light and bright, bringing hope, and reminding us to hold…… Continue reading Christmas Magic
Transition in Season and Focus
Outside it’s full-on autumn with blustery winds and rain – not really the weather for going out for walks and taking photos – but indoors we have the Christmas tree to brighten things up, so there are still photo opportunities to be found. The season is changing and festivities are beginning. We are transitioning between…… Continue reading Transition in Season and Focus
Christmas is Coming
Its tradition in our house to get the Christmas decorations up for 1st December. So yesterday we got started as we had a bit of time. My daughter and her friend helped to decorate the tree and drape tinsel in various places. I know some people disagree with decorating at this time and prefer to…… Continue reading Christmas is Coming
Disco Ball
Another one of the decorations on the Christmas tree is this bauble which reminds me of a disco ball, reflecting light in all directions and picking up all the colours of lights and tinsel.
