I started this a while ago, wanting to do something to remember the Olympics by. I've used the "Tanglepatterns.com" strings Nos 5-9 and the colours of the five rings. I wanted to try and use patterns that gave a feel for some of the many sports and events that took place.

The "scoop" type design in the bottom left (yellow) corner is based on the petals that formed the top of the Olympic flame.

The "wheels" in the same corner are a tribute to Sir Chris Hoy and Bradley WIggins our most successful Olympians.

I'm a bit disappointed with the piece as it is, so might come back to it after my shoulder's sorted, but I wanted to post it tonight at the end of a fabulous two weeks. Love to all. xxx :@) Fi

And I'm back.

Playing with the guitar, the young guy is just amusing himself with the moments passing by.

It's an acoustic guitar which is over 20 years old (dunno exactly since I obviously wasn't around then) but still sounds good. Strings need to be changed though.

My husband call this harp my nemesis. It lives in a library in a nearby college, and once I got a nice shot of it with the sunlight hitting the strings, causing them to glow. I almost used it for my 365 project, but didn't, convinced I could return and get a better focused picture another day. What I didn't realize is that the window is next to a courtyard and the sun has to be above a building to get into the window. So the time the light is perfect, how it was the first time, is brief and actually nonexistent a few days before and after the solstice. I must have returned six times to try to get the lighting right without any luck. I had a good feeling about it today, the sun was bright, the time of day was correct but when I got to the library the harp had been physically moved a few feet. The planets were aligned in my favor but the librarians were not. So after a halfhearted attempt to nudge it back into place I accepted that there would be no light on these strings. I wanted to post the a shot anyway, to try to get it out of my system.

This man at the Fresh Food markets in the city today played the violin really well! And he was also a very friendly character which is helpful if you try and take a photograph.
