About this blog:


A semi-random collection of pictures of various things in various places at various times - updated daily unless & until I run out of material...


All shots are taken by me and almost all with a Canon Powershot G9. As yet, I have no extra equipment or lenses to go with the camera, but I'm hoping this will change soon...


This is my main blog. For my art 'swaps', see:

About Quango-Bingo:


This is a simple game played by two or more people where words or phrases are 'traded' in turn by players.


Rules:


- All words/ phrases must have two syllables
- The second syllable must be an 'o' sound
- Repetition and hesitation are not allowed


For such a simple game, it can get quite tricky - especially if a lot of people are involved.

Quango-Bingo Travels: France, March 2012 - Day 2 (continued): Minature Worlds

There are many trees in my mum’s garden - some are provide fruit, some provide shade, many are simply lovely and (almost) all are covered in the most amazing lichen.

Whenever I go out & about with my camera, I am always drawn to the small spaces - the tiny worlds and the epic miniature landscapes. Luckily, this garden is full of these often-overlooked wonders and I can happily spend hours exploring them - getting up-close and personal with a myriad beautiful ‘hidden’ gems.

1 inch forest
One of the tiny worlds mentioned in my previous post.
I’ve decided to try to post more frequently so that I can get to the photos I took in France before the whole thing gets too distant. That said, there are a lot of shots from the Wyming Brook series…
