Water, Water Everywhere – #58

thanks to Jez for hosting Water Water Everywhere https://jezbraithwaite.blog/2021/01/04/frozen-lochan-water-water-everywhere-58/

On our daily walk today it was a bit drizzly but mild. Most of the snow has melted leaving lots of icy patches and puddles. Not only were we surrounded by the waters of Lake Ontario but we had to step carefully around and over these wet patches on the path.

Macro Monday – January 4, 2021

happy New Year everyone…I hope you continue to take macro shots

I love taking macro shots and even with the change in weather I’m finding all kinds of subjects for macro photography. Hope some of you will share some of your macro shots with the world.

A Mermaid Prompt for Day 3

….for those who are keeping track of my doodling adventures

Late last night on the third day of January I cracked open my book or prompts and the next in line was ‘a mermaid’. I searched for an image that I thought I might be able to draw. I found one that was clearly a mermaid but didn’t have too many details to bog me down. Here is my attempt to draw a mermaid.

Light Up – Day 3

thanks to Becky B for hosting January Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/01/03/square-up-3/

On Day 3 for SquareUp I’m posting my ring light, one of my requested Christmas presents. I’ve discovered that during Zoom meetings I’m always sitting in the dark or I have shadows over my face. Not sure if this is an improvement because now I look very pale. Unfortunately I tend to get pale in the winter anyway but that’s life.

January Squares….SoUP for sUPper

thanks to Becky B for hosting January Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/01/02/square-up-2/

Day 2 of SquareUp. Today I chose to find words with Up in them. While shopping at the top of the street I was thinking of this challenge and wondering how I could include supper in this post. Then I remembered that I had a pot of soup on the stove that I made earlier today for tonight’s supper. Easy peasy!

It was delicious by the way. Sausage meatball and ravioli in a chicken broth with some veg for extra goodness.

January Squares – Day 1

It’s the new year and with it comes Becky’s January Squares challenge. This month the theme is UP. You can interpret it anyway you want…looking up, uphill, upbeat, uplifting, etc. or the word ‘up’ can be part of a word like cup, tuppence, supper, super, etc.. The only rule that you have to follow is that the photo must be square.
