#FLAT LAY
Broken windows and empty hallways
A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles
With frozen smiles to chase love away
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Lonely, lonely
Tin can at my feet
Think I'll kick it down the street
That's the way to treat a friend
Bright before me the signs implore me
To help the needy and show them the way
Human kindness is overflowing
And I think it's going to rain today
Songwriter Randy Newman

Day 234/365:
I would love to have participated in Macro Monday this week. As the theme is Star as a tribute to Hans Holt, one of the administrators who has passed away.
Unfortunately because of my back problem I'm unable to use my big camera with macro lens. So another spotlight iPhone shot as my tribute to him. RIP Hans and HMM to all.
Day 310/365:
Another quick flat lay today.
Apologies for not being very active again but after doing pretty well with recovery my back has taken a turn for the worse again. It's hard to sit at the computer for long.
I really appreciate your comments but please don't feel obliged while I can't reciprocate too much just now. I hate to post and run but having got this far I'm just trying to stay in the game. My osteopath assures me that each relapse should have a quicker recovery time so fingers crossed.
Day 106/365:
April 2022: A month in 30 pictures
I'm finding it increasingly hard to come up with ideas, life is busy and I am struggling to keep up with the 365. I'm not sure I will make it to the end, I have some serious thinking to do.
This started with the photography book, I then added the camera and negatives, then I remembered I had some old family photos I could use, including one of my father in his army uniform.
Day 362/365:
I realise I should have put a 3 instead of a 2 but I didn't think of the title until it was too late but it is most definitely the countdown to the end of the 365. If not my last then certainly the last for a while. I think my son and daughter-in-law would prefer me not to do another one as the last one I did was the year my grandson was born and this year my granddaughter was born...there seems to be a pattern here and I think their family is complete now. ;)
Lensbaby Trio 28 with Velvet setting. Late in the day as I'm still trying to shake this wretched bug off. So fairly low, artificial light.
I was doing some gardening today before the rain hits tomorrow. I deadheaded the roses but it seemed a shame to put them in the compost before taking a photo of them. Since they are fading away anyway I decided on a faded vintage edit with a couple of textures (my own).
I used my nifty fifty as a change from all things Lensbaby.
The cake inspired me for the photo because my husband and I have been very happy to eat it ... hahahaha ... Actually life is like cake ... when you have it you have to take advantage of it and enjoy it, sometimes there is and others are not.
La torta me inspiro para la foto por que a mi esposo y a mi nos ha echo muy feliz comerla ... jajajaja ... En realidad la vida es como la torta .... cuando la tienes hay que aprovechar y disfrutarla, aveces la hay y otras no.

Sacher Torta.... Yummi Dessert
Well, hello there. I've been a very poor Flickrite lately. I'm trying to get back into the habit of taking photos but I'm a bit out of touch.
Just to give an update: My back is improving, at last, it's been eight months so I am very relieved to be making some progress. I now know what the problem is and I'm on the right medication which should help in the long term. Just as I was getting on my feet (so to speak) I went down with a horrible (non Covid) virus which I am now getting over.
I won't be able to catch up with all your images that I have missed but will start afresh and hope to view and comment over the weekend. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

The letter is to my father from his brother during WWII.
Some you may recognize, some you may not. I have a plate that sits off to the side in my studio that collects things I've photographed and other "potentials" because you just never know. Hope it makes you smile!
For the group: "Smile on Saturday", "Flat Lay"
If you visit the notes, I've embedded hyperlinks that will take you back in time to the original post. OK, It's a bit nuts I'll admit that, but it was fun and made me smile, you too perhaps??
For this week's "Smile on Saturday" group theme: Here is the H... (A picture of something - person, animal, plant, object - that begins with the letter H).
Thank you for visiting...have a wonderful day!
Another still life shot using tulips but this time I played around with adding a texture. I don't usually use textures but want to learn more on how to create more images with them.

Thank you for your visit. I hope everyone had a great day!
Day 235/365:
Definitely Dreaming - Vegetables
iPhone spotlight image...again. I did warn that there could be quite a few of these. It's the easiest thing to do at the moment.
Thank you all for your good wishes. I have at last been prescribed something that is going some way to easing the pain with hopefully no ill effects.
Still a way to go before picking up the big camera though. I have been spoiled with the iPhone.
Happy New Year everyone!
I told myself not too long ago that I would never do another 365 (this will be my 4th) and then a few days ago, perhaps against my better judgement, I thought that maybe I would give it a try and if I did, I promised myself there would be absolutely no pressure and just do what I can. If I can't finish it, then that is ok. I already know I will not be posting daily and will be needing to play catch up - look at me already, one day behind in posting - haha! The rules of the project allows this and I am grateful. Life gets busy and I think we all need to go easier on ourselves. I do really enjoy taking and editing photos and the commitment of doing a 365 will push me to keep up with a pastime I enjoy. I plan on working with both my Nikon and my cell phone to take my photos. I enjoy doing macros, still life and flat lay photography so those will be mostly what I will be shooting.
So here I go, saying hello to 2023 and taking it one day at a time.
Day 118/365:
April 2022: A month in 30 pictures
Once again desperately trying to find something for a photo and I remembered these recycled sari silk ribbons I bought a few years ago...I loved the vibrant colours and was going to do something amazing with them, no doubt ;) Perhaps I'll get round to doing something other than photography with them now...watch this space...maybe.
Day 359/365:
Definitely Dreaming - Favourite things - chocolate, especially Lindor truffles
We had a very busy but wonderful family Christmas day. This backdrop is one of my presents and the chocolates were another.
A dash of brandy in my hot coffee helped warm me up as I raked the leaves.....
Have a fabulous day...

Day 360/365:
Definitely Dreaming - Something new - since the photo board is new I decided to add this to DD for this theme. I'm still behind!
This is another of the photo boards I had for Christmas. I just had to use it but had left it quite late in the day so a rushed flat lay that may be a little similar to others that I've done. Ah well, all is fair in a 365.
Lensbaby Trio 28, using the sweet setting...hence the title. For those not familiar with cockney rhyming slang. Rosie lee means tea.
Another one using my hydrangea. Not altogether happy with the spoon handle going in the same direction as the hydrangea stem but didn't really notice it properly until after editing. I may try a slightly different composition another time.
It's almost the weekend so wishing you all a good one. Wee are going away to Norfolk for a few days, internet connection can be sketchy there but I will try to stop by.
Day 153/365:
This is one of the peonies from my early birthday bouquet. They have been really beautiful but have now started to lose their petals. I felt it looked a little more interesting with the vintage edit
“The party's on
The feeling's here
That only comes
This time of year
Simply having a wonderful Christmas time.”

100/100: 100 x challenge - Flowers
100 Flowers 2020
I hope I haven't offended anyone with the title but it really made me chuckle when I saw it. I think laughter is something we all need as this year draws to a close.
These beautiful flowers were sent to me by my son and daughter-in-law to cheer me up after a tough week...it really helped.
Thank you all for your friendship, comments and faves throughout this particularly trying year.
I wish you all health, happiness, love, inspiration and creativity in the coming year.

Thanks for all you views,faves and comments:-)
"Smile on Saturday" theme: Presented on a plate.
It doesn't really feel like Spring outside today so I wanted to create of little of the feeling inside instead. I am finding it harder to find fresh tulips in the store now that Easter is behind us so now these might be the last of them until next year. They had become great props for me when it came to creating still lifes.
Thanks for your visit and I hope everyone is having a great Saturday!
We pulled down the garden over the past few days and now have an abundance of fresh tomatoes. Yesterday I pickled a dozen pints of green tomatoes and froze 5 dozen red ripe tomatoes. We have cherry tomatoes in various stages of ripeness that I played with today. I set out a myriad of layouts trying to get better at flatlays but none of them really worked out so I settled on this simple layout that was supposed to resemble a traffic light. We stay home some much that it feels somewhat foreign to drive anywhere. I hope you are all staying safe and managing the stress of life.
Since I started working on food photography yesterday I just decided to continue on that path. I keep getting distracted from my original goals with photography which was to work on family recipes. The past few years I've been finding it difficult to concentrate and stay focused on reading and projects but I feel like I am back. I need to work on styling but baby steps, you know...
Day 73/365:
What a surprise, another flat lay. It's the easy option for me (as long as I can find things that I get inspired by or I think will go together). My dying tulips were crying out to be photographed...can't you just hear them? I haven't used this heart for a while either.
I guess it had to happen sooner or later, my husband and I both tested positive for Covid today. Fairly mild symptoms, a cough and slight fever and aches. Keeping our fingers crossed that this is as bad as it gets.
Happy Pi Day, I couldn't be bothered to bake a pie for the MM theme.

#74 - 100 x challenge - Lensbaby
I took this one last month and haven't used it before as I'm not sure it really works or tells a story...I just wanted to use my new French (vintage) binoculars. However, having made good headway with my 100, I feel I am now falling behind so that's a good enough reason to add this one.

11/30: April 2019: A month in 30 pictures
A bit thrown together as I was a bit desperate and short of time today...now got to clear up all these tiny bits of lavender that I thought would be a good idea to sprinkle around! I bought the little bucket at the Ideal Home show last week and have been wanting to use it.
Just realised I did the original shades of grey for the October challenge.
Here is a link to my 'shades of' Album:
Day 79/365:
Another simple flat lay today because I wanted to get another use from the mascara I picked the other day.
24/30: April 2019: A month in 30 pictures
Life is like a cup of tea...it's all in how you make it
Another tea related flatlay but it's been a busy day and I couldn't think of anything else to take a photo of.
