Reflection 📷 nostalgia, Newport, Rhode Island, 1989-90.

Boats are docked at a calm harbor with reflections visible on the water and buildings in the background.A foggy, serene harbor scene with still water reflecting wooden docks and pilings.

A bit of nostalgia and one for the Pacific Wave Appreciation folks.

A person wearing a hat is running along a sandy beach as waves crash near the shoreline, with houses and hills in the background.

We did get a little sunshine in the end.

The AI generated alt-text mistakes my shadow for the reflection of a chilled-out lamp post in the rain.

You can’t really make it out properly in the photo, but trust me, there’s a whole* avocado under there.

*Whole as in peeled, de-seeded and chopped.

Spuds are flowering!

🌧️ No chance of a sun shadow 📷 today, so here’s a mummy duck 🦆 shadow instead.

A group of ducks is resting on the grass by a body of water near a rope-covered object.

Three curve-y cootlings swimming in their own curve-y wakes.

I noticed a lot of straight lines, and fewer curves on my my morning walk, but these three were my favourites. Although it was so bright I couldn’t actually see them when I took the photo.

Made my first ever music sale today on Bandcamp. Woohoo!

Not trees.

A row of potted plants arranged along a wooden fence in a backyard setting.Several green leafy plants are growing in fabric pots placed on grass near a wooden fence.

These trees outside our home provide beautiful cover for the ugly industrial warehouse they built shortly after we bought our flat. They make up for the loss of horizon view (in reality a derelict wasteland) making our close cozy and private. They provide shelter from the afternoon sun in summer allowing the kids to play outside freely.

Big kid decided each tree symbolises one of us, according to size. That’s me on the right. My neighbour wants to have me chopped down because I leave a mess on her car when she parks underneath.

Occasionally I like to lie on a blanket in our communal garden and just watch the trees swaying in the wind. During lockdown it was incredibly peaceful and calming watching the trees and the birds - crows, parakeets, pigeons, starlings, magpies, and red kites, geese and egrets flying by overhead.
