took this photo the other day when i was doing the red night wear shoot. It was getting a little chilly while walking around downstairs that i chucked this jumper on over my nighty,
Caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and thought what a nice look it was. i could see myself going out like this in all truth. would have to wear shoes though
It was the best thing when I was sick as a kid and it's still what I gravitate to after a rough day at work.
(I keep telling myself this. I want to believe it.)
everything will be okay
in the end
If it's not okay,
it's not the end.

Collected Comfort looks into the spaces created by people to showcase their collections. Whether it be toys, games, books or even cars, I am exploring why people like myself find comfort and mindfulness from dedicated space and how it acts as a form of escapism.
Starting off with my space that drove me to do this project. This "LEGO Shed" is home to my entire LEGO collection, starting from the age of just 4. This is my safe haven and my happy place in physical form.
After our visit to Wray, Mum & I went to Morecambe for lunch. It was pretty busy and the donkeys were in high demand for rides. This one was listening as a squalling child was being lifted onto his back, but the owner was there to offer some comfort.
“Hello, Theo, how are you today?” Asked Sky as he sat down beside his new friend.
“Not very good, Sky, I can’t seem to get myself happy today. I am kind of grumpy.”
“Why do you think that is, Theo?”
“I don’t know, Sky. You go and chat to the other bears, I will be fine, eventually.” Said Theo with a sigh.
Sky sat down beside Theo without saying a word.
“Why are you staying here, Sky, I am not good company right now.”
“I feel like that at times, Theo, and when it happens, Posh, Barnaby, Bertie, or some other bear will always just sit with me and I know that I am not alone and have friends and that helps make me happy again.”
Theo smiled and nodded his head as if in agreement.
Moments later, Posh, Bertie and Barnaby came along and they all down too.
“Theo is not feeling in a happy mood, so I am sitting with him in the hope that will cheer him up again.” Said Sky.
“That is a good idea, Sky, we will all sit with Theo so he knows that we are all his friends and it does not matter how he feels, we’ll always still be his friend.” Said Posh Bear to the other bears who all nodded in agreement.
“Theo, do you know why you feel unhappy?” Asked Barnaby.
“I am not sure, but I think it happened when I looked outside.”
Four heads all looks outside the window to see if they could work out the problem.
“Is it because it looks cold outside, Theo?” Asked Bertie.
“No, I do not think so, Bertie. I was looking at the trees and wondering what will happen to them now they have lost all their green leaves. Now they are also losing their brownish leaves, I just wonder what will become of them after that.” Said Theo looking very sad.
“Sky will tell you if you wish to know, Theo, he is a genius, I know that because he told me so.” Said an excited Barnaby.
“Trees, yes very strange things are trees.” Said Sky looking outside.
“Why is that, Sky?” Asked Theo.
“Well, they have a lot of nice lush green leaves on their branches to keep them warm when the orange thing in the air is showing, and the weather is hot. Now, I would have thought they would either keep their green leaves for when it gets cold, or not have leaves at all when it is hot. Now, when it becomes cold out there and one would expect they need to keep warm they turn all their green leaves brown and then they fall to the ground and look very untidy. When the wind begins blowing, they all shiver feeling the cold, yes, very strange things are trees.” Said Sky.
“What will happen to them when they have no leaves at all, though? Will they still be there or will they all disappear and there will be no more trees?” Asked Theo.
“Well, Theo, during the cold and windy days the weather will go through what is known as nature’s pruning season that remove broken bits and wood that should not be there and then when it starts to warm up outside, they will grow fresh green leaves again. I dare say they know what they are doing, Theo, they will come back again after many sleeps.” Explained Sky.
“Really? Are you sure, Sky?” Asked Theo looking slightly happier.
“Of course, Theo, I am a genius, you see. Is that not right, Posh Bear?” Asked Sky.
“Yes, well that is what has happened every time so far and I can see no reason why it will not happen again, Theo. It is as Sky says, there is no need to be sad about it.”
“I suppose you have not seen trees before, Theo, being in the store all the time. It is nothing to be unhappy about, they will return and look all green again after some sleeps.” Said Bertie reassuring his friend.
Theo looked around him and he smiled.
“You know, it is lovely to have friends around you when you feel a little grumpy. It is especially good to have you guys around because now I feel happy again.” He said smiling.
“I feel that is good to hear, what do you think, Sky?” Asked Barnaby.
“If Theo is happy again, well I am sure it was the work of a genius.” Said Sky smiling rather smugly.
As I navigated through the dry grass and finally reached this cooperative adult Norther Harrier, she sat there allowing for copious amounts of frames! She looked at me a couple times on my approach, but just ignored me. I had a TC on initially and took it off and shot her at 400mm. Image was not cropped! Click on image for slightly better clarity.
The Shalford Junction-Petersfield Blockade took place in February 2022 and lasted for nine days. Rail replacement coaches were in operation and I spent a midweek day in Petersfield snapping the comings and goings.

A couple months ago this cat was feral and would run away, jump fences and keep running at the sight of me. Now he accepts strokes from me and belly rubs, grooming and burr removals from Barbara, as in this picture.
He still prefers to spend most of his time outdoors, regardless of the weather. He shows up when he's hungry. We give him food and freedom.
In the beginning I never thought this scene would be possible. May we all be as able to get over our fears.

The griddle has become quite a multi-tasker. It is now my new sandwich press on the grill :). Tonight's menu -- Tomato soup with grilled cheese sandwich. A classic combination and quite satisfying.
The lower branches of the Tulip Tree offer protective shade from the glare of the morning sun.

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
When you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go, 'cause everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go, (hold on)
When you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on
'Cause everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone
If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on
Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
Everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts. You are not alone
" Everybody Hurts " R.E.M.
