Smile on Saturday - Red on white background
The little hearts are from my craft stash and the large one hangs in my bathroom. I do have quite a lot of hearts dotted around my house.
My back is improving slowly, once again, but I am continuing with the iPhone, which has proved invaluable, until I feel able to pick up the big camera again.

I came across these beautiful seed pods, along with the stars, from a local florist yesterday. It just gave me the idea for using them as something to depict the changing seasons. I first tried something with pumpkins but then thought I'd have another go at knolling, it's quite therapeutic trying to place all the components. After I'd done I thought maybe the seed pods should have been to one side or other rather than centred. Wondering if they are a tad bright. This is the problem with entering competitions at camera club...you start to get overly critical about every photo you take!

When you're desperately trying to put a blue flatlay together and it's just not working and then your grandson lends you his blue glasses (well, his mummy did really but how could I not use them?)
Only two more days to go!
I have good dishes I never use. I take them out here or there for photography and then put them away in their zippered up protective bags and place them back in my cupboard. I feel bad that I never use them but after today I think I might change that. The greatest joy is the present moment so celebrate and use the good dishes!

Thanks for your visit! Happy Crazy Tuesday.
I collected a number of small blooms from my garden, all yellow, oranges and purple.
I then arranged them on a purple cloth and made the image by shooting from above.

I love the splash of purple that asters bring to autumn. Alongside the asters are my vintage scissors that I acquired recently. The book dates back to at least 1796, you may be able to see the date that is written in it. I love anything with a bit of history.

Glasses laid down on poster board, on the floor, with direct sunlight coming thru the dining room window, and shot from above. In post I adjusted the exposure and color but otherwise this is as shot. The glasses wanted to roll around rather than stay where I placed them, so I just went with it! : )
Day 182/365:
Definitely Dreaming - I'm reading - Reading the menu for afternoon tea at Luton Hoo. I went there for my big birthday recently and brought the menu home as a keepsake...and a photo prop, of course!
Well, today sees the start of the seventh month in my 2022 365 journey. Still not sure I'll manage to see this one through to the end but I'm doing my best...even though there have been many, many days where I've been ready to throw in the towel.
I am a bit of a stationary junkie. Back to school shopping to buy school supplies was a favourite thing of mine. Even now when I see the store shelves lined with new school supplies I have a little walk through to see what I might need (want). Usually it is pens and notebooks. Not that I need new notebooks as I really have enough of them but I see cute notebooks just like this and I want them, so I buy them. I also liked the message. We all deserve good things, right? :)
I hope everyone is doing well and having a great day!
Thanks for visiting. :)

This is the time of year for getting healthy and if you are someone who has resolved to get in shape then good for you...keep at it and don't give up!
One of my peonies fell apart as I went to take a photo so I had to change tack. As I put the petals in the cup they seemed to take on the shape of the peony. At the risk of getting boring I thought I'd use my new heart again.
Day 11/365:
Crazy Tuesday - Green
I'm in the process of pressing this poinsettia leaf but I liked the rich colour so decided to take it out and use it before putting it back to dry completely. I've been looking for a frame like this for ages and finally found one so it will probably feature again in my 365.
66/100: 100 x challenge - Flowers
100 Flowers 2020
Some more of the flowers from my flower delivery, some of my favourite jewellery...and the star which is part of a set that I bought on my trip to Anglesey in January...not forgetting my white lace scarf that I bought on a trip to Menorca many years ago.
Day 257/365:
It's been an exhausting few days with a few false alarms but our little granddaughter finally arrived early this morning. So now we have two precious grandchildren. Ideally I would have made this high key but didn't do it until late.

Another flat lay using the Velvet 56 and Omni filter across the top. This is another flower from one of my Mother's Day bouquets. I am hoping they will continue to inspire me. I think I will be flooding my feed with flower images for the foreseeable. This stock smells wonderful.

I was looking online at some vintage props today, as you do, when I noticed some numbers like this. It reminded me that I had some in my craft stash...where else? So I wasted no time in finding them and setting up this flat lay with some vintage goodies.
Just in case you would like to know where the bits and bobs are from:
*Postcard from a collection from my late mother-in-law
*Scissors, my very first pair of hairdressing scissors
*Letter and envelope, dated 1923, from a supply I bought at a vintage fair in Norfolk and addressed to not far from where I grew up
*Heart from very dear Flickr friend Diane
*Violets from our garden, cruelly pulled up by my husband...no of course I'm not still cross with him 😂
300/365: 300 days down, 65 to go...this year is going by so quickly!

Another in the 'shades of' series...how far can I stretch this? It's easy to think of colours but I don't have props in all of them. I love props that bring back memories, I bought this white scarf in Bruges, it was an extravagant purchase but I have used it a lot and now it's come in handy as a prop. The little charms were sewn on to it...one of the things I loved about it, although I feel there should be three.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.
I wanted to do a flat lay shot of some strawberries for a while now. Finally got a chance today. I used a flash on the upper right side and a reflector on the lower right to create the lighting for the picture. Photo is straight out of camera. :)

I asked my husband to pick a few asters from the garden. This was bit of a rushed job (as much as I can rush at the moment) but it was quite late in the day (it's not been the best day) and I have to get used to doing this style with the iPhone. As you can see by the title I haven't totally lost my sense of humour...yet ;)
I was feeling so accomplished this morning. I got up at 5:40, went to Jazzercise, stopped by the grocery store and set up to take my image all before 8:00. You wouldn't think this would have been that hard to put together but fruits and veggies are roundish and want to roll away so I had to herd them back into the pile. I had it all set up, snapped a few shots only to discover I had things in the frame that weren't supposed to be so I had to rearrange and shoot again. Working on my mmmm Monday series. Wishing you a delicious rainbow today!

The little vase (part of a trio), and the stars in the corners are from our trip to Anglesey in January. So lovely to have these pre lockdown memories. Makes me realise how lucky we were to actually get a holiday this year when so many have been cancelled or postponed until goodness knows when. I love to bring back little things for the home and or photo props. The starfish are from our trip to Lanzarote last year. The little buttons and pearls from my craft stash I often use as decorations on gifts.
I can't take credit for the title, my husband came up with it.
Giving MM a miss this week as I couldn't find my macro mojo.
150/365: I've just finished reading this book that a friend lent me, I thought it was worthy of a photo.

As much as I would like to change this composition, it is set and frozen. I tried to shift the hearts around, and the petals started falling out of my frozen hearts, so I learned to accept what is. Each heart is unique and has it's own shape and characteristics that shifted into place naturally as the water froze. Much like with people, we have gone through things that have changed us in profound ways. Remember to be kind, we are all broken in some way.
