Contrasts of Textures

….even though Christmas is long over there are still signs

One of the things that I still see in front of homes and businesses are boxes and planters of Christmas greens and foliage. I love the contrast of colours and textures when you observe them close-up.

Lighting Up the Path

thanks to Becky B. for hosting January Squares https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/01/31/square-up-31/

Can’t believe that this is the last day of the challenge, SquareUp. Becky has done a great job of hosting this challenge and I’m looking forward to the next Square challenge in April.

I have a few more square photos that didn’t make it into to 31 days so I’ll just post them as a bonus. You can interpret them anyway you want….messed up, tangled up, up the road, iced up, dried up, etc.

January Squares – The Last Ones

… I can’t believe that January Squares  is over today

Thanks Becky for hosting this month’s square challenge about light. The light that comes through a greenhouse allows the public to enjoy flowers year round. 62E1ADB6-149D-42CA-A921-58EDC0C38A24641F3A6E-EAC6-4687-9604-DC5779E1ABEF

I’m sure a missed a few days so here are some more squares of light; twilight, coloured lights, and a back lit spaceman. EB67AE4A-0351-4F8B-A780-F7C644A336EC_1_201_a2E920743-8187-448F-9E6F-D94B161D633371583A9C-42CC-4E43-B97D-95EB622E6FB9
