Memories, dreams and reflections.

The wonderful Ashley Sisk is hosting the most fantastic challenge at the moment, she has given us a list of about 20 prompts so here are mine -
1. Me
Not great at seeing myself in photographs, I used a self timer and made sure it was blurry.

2. I love you
My lovely, patient, kind best friend, my husband Michael, we have been married nearly 22 years.

3. Still laughing
For some strange reason there is a llama in the field near us, I always laugh when I look at this photo.

4. Winter Wonderland


5. I was inspired.
Edward Weston is one of my favourite photographers and I was inspired to try my own interpretation of one of his photographs.

6. Spring Fever
Wisteria in my garden last spring.

7. Friends
My daughter Alice and one of her best friends on the last day of school forever.

8. Travel or vacation

Wonderful Morocco

9.  Summer Days
Alice at the beach.

10. All smiles
These little girls didn't know I was taking their picture, they were having such a great giggle together.

11. Autumn Harvest

12. Family
Our lovely dogs Hetty and Mintie are so much part of our family.

13. Lets do it again
Lets go back to Paris.

14. Dress up
Harry let me dress up his feet.

15. Holidays



16. Don't ever change
Even though he doesn't speak much and is a typical teenager he is still my little Harry!

17. Just because
It's a sweet dog.

18. Hopes and dreams
I hope to continue on this wonderful journey in the world of photography, I love this blogging community and seeing life through the camera lens.

    I just looove all of your photos.. The one of the llama just cracks me up. And those two little girls giggling is just so sweet. I really don't think my hubby would have let be dress up his feet. What a nice hubby to let you do that.

    Take care my friend and have a great day..

    Hugs, Linda

    I hope you have a wonderful day!

    Wow, Justine - what a beautiful collection! I love them all. Those little girls are just adorable!!
    The river of stones project is a writing exercise and I've decided to do it without photos, just try to let the words paint the picture - quite a challenge but I'm enjoying it.

    Hey Justine-you know I adore your photos. (Missing those tea cakes at the top of your blog but the new image is divine as well) Your Llam made me laugh too, love Harry from behind, your hopes and dreams photo, and the one from Morocco-that is stunning.
