The American lotus flowers in the lake have started to bloom. I think this was one was the first to bloom as it is the largest; there are plenty of buds for a spectacular show at the end of July.
I remember that in the '70s my mother had a lamp like this in the dining room of the house. They still sell them online in the vintage section.
It was one of those complete, random chance encounters, I was walking Bobby and happened upon this lamp left in the street. When I got home I grabbed my camera kit and headed back out, whilst getting mobbed by multiple mosquitoes I managed to get an LE, the light within it is from my mobile with the torch on. I recall the former owner of said lamp opening his window for a cigarette and curiously wondering what the hell I was doing with his former living room furniture.
It's made me consider this new collection, "Life Signs" whereabouts I happen upon rubbish, appliances, ornaments and things abandoned, I want to try and create something from it.
I hope everyone is well and so as always, thank you! :)
Today the sun shone,following recent rainy days. Intense early morning light bursting into the room,casting shadows from the venetian blinds.The lines, diagonals and shapes and colour blocking seemed to present a photo opportunity in my eyes.

I was there in mid November last year (2018) on a mini reunion with my school friends. We had a fabulous time and I personally prioritised food and photography. Shopping not so much.
To those who have expressed worry for my wellbeing, these pictures were taken naclk in 2018, well before the current protest situation.
