The Die Is Cast

Smaller than a breadbin (as per Cee’s Black & White Challenge this week).? Most definitely.
I took this photo with my smartphone, then applied the ‘Pinhole Camera’ filter in Photoshop Express for added interest.
Cee’s Black & White Photo Challenge: Smaller than a breadbin
Green, Green Glass
Posted on April 15, 2021
It’s colour week for Cee’s Midweek Challenge this week and the chosen colour is light or neon green.
Handily, another of the panes of stained glass in the suncatcher that I featured a couple of weeks ago here fits the bill, and is a pleasingly abstract image (which reminds me a little of a slide under a microscope).
The Rusty Pram

The Fun Foto Challenge this week has the theme of ‘texture’. There’s lots of that in this battered old doll’s baby carriage, not to mention the concreted wall behind it and the gravel beneath.
Popeye The Smuggler

I was surprised to find this model boat at an airshow, of all places. I may never look at Popeye in the same light again.
Rainbow Wool

It’s macro/close-up week for Cee’s Midweek Challenge.
Madame has been knitting recently, using some multi-coloured wool.

Posted on April 7, 2021
Cee’s theme for the Fun Foto Challenge this week is the size comparison of objects.
From Madame’s extensive collection of elephants:
Inevitably, this challenge reminded me of some classic Father Ted (for the uninitiated, one of the finest UK sitcoms of the past forty years)
BBQ Time
Posted on April 2, 2021
For her Black & White Challenge this week, Cee is looking for something that would be found on a picnic table or in a park.
This – sitting on our picnic table – is the rather nifty spatula from our set of barbecue tools.
The Suncatcher
Posted on April 1, 2021
Back last summer, when such things were possible, Madame and lovely daughter went to a stained glass workshop together. While they were there they each made a suncatcher, which sits very well in a sunny garden.
Roses In Decline

Sic transit gloria mundi.
Madame’s very lovely Mothers’ Day bouquet, two weeks on.
(An experiment with the HDR function of my new phone camera app).
Mosaic

This mosaic floor is just a small part of the rich decorations of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi.
