Happy weekend everyone!

 

Thanks to everyone who takes the time to view, comment or fave this image

 

Am away in the day, catch up later, cheers!

I’ve been away from Flickr for some time helping mum organise a funeral during COVID times. It’s been a metaphorical ball ache since December 25 (2020).

Here’s a picture of my mum walking he approach to Newstead Abbey. Once we mum and I came out of isolation back in July 2020 we took many opportunities to catch up on lost time together and took advantage of the daily one hour walk set out by the UK Government (…or should I call them the Bullingdon flip-flop?).

Escaping the corona to a local watersite, enjoyed.

It is always beautiful to spend time with family at beach during Sun set.

Another beautiful Sunset...

Thank you in advance to everyone that comments and/or faves my picture. They are all immensely appreciated.

Familytime means Qualitytime! <3

Fun day today with my daughter. We took a drive through the mountains and stopped at a few nice places. Really liked the atmosphere here.

Out with my grandson

Ludo in this vintage version is always "hygge" to play, even in moments like this where fate and luck can be with you... or not :-)

"Glämmer-Gustav the shining star of the red carpet"

Die einzig wahre Konkurrenz für Poser-Paule ist Glämmer-Gustav - der leuchtende Stern des roten Teppichs :) Immer dabei, wenn es um die Reichen und Schönen geht und immer am Puls der Zeit. Man beachte die makellose Haltung und das smarte Lächeln im Schnabel - ein echtes Vorbild für die Community.

The only real competitor for Poser-Paule is Glämmer-Gustav - the shining star of the red carpet :) Always there when it comes to the rich and beautiful and always on the cutting edge. Note the flawless posture and the smart smile in his face - a real role model for the community.

So I think the look across the table, says it all.

 

Vivi grimaces as she tries not to spit her food out.

 

Serina just tilts her head away trying not to laugh.

 

Afi keeps on spilling the tea, telling his story all though the girls are having a tough time digesting his tale.

 

And for me...

 

All I can do, is sip my tea and try to give some decent side eye in the process.

Usui 3rd Bridge is the largest arched brick bridge in Japan and part of a beautiful 6-kilometer trail called Apt Road. The trail follows a disused rail line that passes over six bridges and ten tunnels, and is surrounded by national park. The bridge is nicknamed “Megane bashi,” meaning “spectacles bridge,” because of its four arches.

 

It was built in 1892 in collaboration with British engineer Charles Assheton Whately Pownall during the Meiji era (1868–1912) when Japan was rapidly modernizing. It served as a railway passage between Yokokawa in Gunma and Karuizawa in Nagano. Services stopped in 1963, and the bridge was repurposed as part of a nature trail in 2001.

It’s been a while since the last time I’ve uploaded a photograph. Came back last week from a very nice holiday in Spain, where I visited the Costa Brava. With my own family, my brothers families and the cousins we had a wonderful time, and I did a bit of landscape photography as well (not much though). But off course I also enjoy making portraits of my children and cousins, and with the 85mm I got a lovely tool😊 Therefore I like to show an image of two cousins (that weren’t on the vacation actually), from a shoot I did earlier for my lovely sister.

 

I’m going to take my time the next few days, to look at all the photographs I’ve missed last few weeks. Excuse me for not responding as much as I used to, I just couldn’t find the time to be active on Flickr lately. I'm hoping to be a bit more in the coming weeks!

 

Thanks for having a look! All faves and comments are highly appreciated!

well, the three who like pictures :)

 

*so technically not right, but I got to love it :)

 

**used michelle black's BW essence!

I was taking some shots of the Nile Geese and family when the Beagle came running towards the birds as most dogs do, to my surprise the Father spread his wings and stood up to the dog opened his wings and protected his family, the dog then ran off..what a brave Goose... Amazing

It's been awhile since I posted a picture of one of my children. I'm acutely aware that portraits are not as popular on Flickr. I've even had some well meaning messages sent to my Flickr inbox telling me I would have better success in choosing one or the other to post. I suppose this is true... I started an Instagram page for the sole purpose of landscapes @rachelbrokawphotography

but Flickr has and probably will always be a way of just sharing my favorite pictures no matter what they are. So I hope this doesn't bother anyone but there will always probably be sprinkles of my children mixed onto my Flickr page. So here's fair warning:) This picture is from a few days ago. It had stayed cloudy and cool but no lightning so I was willing to venture out into this open space. The trail curves through rolling hills before climbing to this large open space. The sun is front at this spot and perfect for cloudy days for the soft light. Elijah who is now 2, still has short legs that make it hard to keep up with all the hills. This Radio Flyer has came in handy on so many occasions. When we reached the top I pulled him into the field to quickly get this shot of the cloudy skies and gentle light in the clouds. I love using my 85mm for the soft bokeh it brings and also so I can back up further away so he forgets I'm even taking pictures. I love it when that happens!! There is a fire that is in somewhat close proximity - not dangerously so but enough to have smokey air. Makes my heart sad to see all the fires again in Colorado. This also meant a fire ban was in place for 4th of July in most places. I hope this coming Winter yields more moisture and that this dry trend stops somehow. Many of my favorite areas are currently on fire. Prayers and good thoughts for rain are much appreciated. Me and the kids have terrible colds and will probably spend the weekend at home with the AC blasting catching up on favorite movies haha. Sending much love to each one of you. Thank you as always for taking the time to read my thoughts and support me on my photography adventure!

Back to the window this afternoon but a little distracted by the wandering dog who really wanted a sniff. Luckily Nessalina felt safe enough under the watchful eye of Tigs (he's in the bokeh background) to stop and pose for a photo.

 

I was actually trying to get a photo of both Tigelaar and Nessie together but they weren't up for the challenge of sitting still long enough.

 

Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.

Explore #287 by the time I noticed it

My 283rd to make Explore

 

This is the look on my sons faces when I say it's time to go in. And I don't blame them. Around 8:30 the heat has subdued and the cool evening sets in. The skies are lit with a peach and plum glow. There is just enough light that begs one to stay outdoors. I often let my little ones play outside until the light has completely vanished and then we reluctantly go inside. Sometimes we stay out and watch the stars turn on one by one like twinkling lights across the sky, Summer evenings are my favorite part of summer. It's a time to reflect in the refreshing coolness of the evening from the feverish craze of the day. It reminds me of catching a fever when I was kid and my Mom would come and gently touch my forehead to gauge my temperature. Her hands were cool and comforting against my hot head and I could safely drift asleep. Summer evenings are the same way, a time to reflect and let the anxieties of the day softy fade away. How do you find yourself enjoying the Summer? I hope you all are well and having a great summer so far!!:)

In time of test, family is the best ♥

 

In our garden , is always great time for FamilyTime :)

This 500 piece puzzle should keep us busy for a while. It will be the perfect project for this chilly weekend.
