I like the idea of one photo a day.

by **Herbidacious** » March 16th, 2016, 11:56 am

That is a lovely photo, Terry.

Some lovely ones from you too Jane.

by **Herbidacious** » March 16th, 2016, 12:02 pm

Here are some somewhat random ones from me:

I need to retake the cow one with a 'proper' camera!

Love the sheep, especially the second one - but then I just love all sheep. Wonderful animals.

Gorgeous photos Herbi.

by **Herbidacious** » March 30th, 2016, 8:42 am

Thank you.

Wonderful! Sheep are such characters.

I suggested a soap bubble workshop to the photo club. Two had the grace to let me know they could not come, four turned up, the rest stayed away.

Still, we had a lot of fun with the bubbles and got some interesting photographs out of it. Since I was the organising party, I didn't get to snap that much, but even so, some lovely shots were possble.

I can only recommend it. It is not easy to snap them, but so much fun to blow them and watch them. And take loads of pictures, then you can be sure to come away with some beauties.

I'll let you in on a secret: a dark background will give the best colours and reflections, but don't let that stop you snapping them against other backgrounds, they show different facets that way.

This thread has been shamefully neglected and deserves to be revived.

I am as guilty as everyone else for allowing it to drop out of sight. Let's get it afloat again! Here goes:

I have been toying with the idea of snapping feet. The poor things must carry us everywhere, but get little thanks for it.

First attempt, my foot on its own.

Here it is resting with a companion.

And here my toes are taking a break on the balcony, enjoying a bit of light and wind.

Nice nails Uschi- fab colour!

(and very elegant feet if I may say so...)

by **uschi** » September 12th, 2016, 5:18 pm

Thank you! :tutu:

I don't like painting my fingernails, since I do too much with them and they look messy after about five minutes. Feet are different.

by **Seatallan** » September 12th, 2016, 6:03 pm

by **earthmaiden** » September 12th, 2016, 6:24 pm

Wow, what lovely feet! I hope you are not suggesting that we all publish pictures of ours :scared:

I love painted nails.

by **aero280** » September 12th, 2016, 6:29 pm

I have only photographed my feet inadvertently!! :rolleyes:

Mainly when taking photos of car repairs!!

by **uschi** » September 12th, 2016, 6:37 pm

by **Pepper Pig** » September 12th, 2016, 6:44 pm

Youre not seeing my feet. They look like those of Bilbo Baggins. :twisted:

by **uschi** » September 12th, 2016, 7:12 pm

Well, feet with shoes then!!!

Besides, if you look closely, my toes are slightly hairy ... so maybe a Hobbit peed on my family tree way back when.

by **Herbidacious** » April 3rd, 2017, 8:39 pm

Has no one posted on here since last year or is there another thread now...? (no 3...)

I took my mother out - her first venture outside since Christmas - yesterday. Just to a farm/farm shop, but there were animals...

by **hickybank** » April 3rd, 2017, 9:20 pm

Ah herby. the phoenix rises from the ashes, no there is no No 3 it has just gone quiet but now you have revived it hopefully old friends will return
The sheep look so cute when young & love the hair do in the first picture.
As we have just returned from Costa Rica & have loads of pictures to go through, so will post some on here
Cheers
Terry

by **Herbidacious** » April 3rd, 2017, 9:30 pm

Please do. I have been looking at some of them on Flickr. I hope you had a good time.

by **PatsyMFagan** » April 4th, 2017, 11:49 am

I took this photo last year as I realised that I have an identical hair colour

and here is my latest project - a small rockery using 3 of the plants my daughter bought me for Mother's Day/Birthday (for those of you not on FB

)

by **aero280** » April 4th, 2017, 10:55 pm

Just to lower the tone a bit :rolleyes:

I took a picture of my car through a kid's kaleidoscopic viewer. There was nothing much else about as it's still wintry here in foggy bottom.

by **hickybank** » April 5th, 2017, 7:00 am

Nice to see the thread revived thanks for everyone's input, I wll post more later

by **Herbidacious** » April 5th, 2017, 7:06 pm

Great photos Terry.

Patsy, it is indeed the colour of your hair (in your photo) :lol:

I like your rockery.

Aero that's a good idea. Not thought to do that.

It feels like ages ago, but Umbria was lovely. I can heartily recommend it. Admittedly no single big must-sees really, but this is probably why it was not too touristy. (We didn't spend long in Assisi though...) I had some amazing food.

by **hickybank** » September 1st, 2017, 6:50 pm

Looks a very interesting place to visit, I might have to add it to my bucket list as we have only been to southern Italy.
I imagine the food was superb as well, making my mouth water just thinking of it.

As this is a photo thread here is one from today
Small Tortoiseshell

by **Herbidacious** » September 1st, 2017, 7:09 pm

That's lovely H-cky.

One thing about Umbria, photographically speaking, was that everything was very brown! But they had been (still are?) having an ongoing heatwave of the likes of 40 degrees for some time. I saw pictures of fields of poppies and cornflowers from the spring.

Even food from the supermarket was very good. People were friendly too. (In spite of our almost complete lack of Italian.)

by **Herbidacious** » September 23rd, 2017, 9:10 pm

The garden is looking very sad. We grew a few sunflowers, but the winds brought them down the other week so I picked a couple to add to some that were bought for my birthday. My strawberries are still flowering, but I have stopped bothering to try to pick them. Something always gets there first...

by **hickybank** » September 23rd, 2017, 9:42 pm

Yes the gardens are looking sad, next week I intend to dig out all the border plants as they are going over & we are away in somerset for two weeks in Oct, I don't want the job when we get back

by **aero280** » September 24th, 2017, 7:56 pm

This thread has been poorly attended recently!

I'll add a photo from the latter part of the holiday. As we walked back down to the village from the Cirque de Gavarnie in the Pyrenees we saw this calf stagger to its feet after having just been born. A bit sad really. We thought that the autumn was a bit late for mountain cattle to be breeding, as winter will arrive soon. But then we realised that it will probably already be veal before the winter really starts...

by **hickybank** » September 24th, 2017, 9:38 pm

Still a lovely photo Aero

by **Zosherooney** » September 24th, 2017, 10:12 pm

Some staggeringly beautiful images here....

Just back from our holiday in Somerset, here are a few pics

Very nice, Hicky.

by **uschi** » October 18th, 2017, 5:23 pm

Great shots Terry!!! The bearded tit is my favourite, but the wall brown comes a close second.

by **Luca** » October 18th, 2017, 5:35 pm

Super hicky!

by **hickybank** » October 18th, 2017, 5:50 pm

A couple more

This Swan was preening for ages I think he might have had parasites

by **aero280** » October 18th, 2017, 7:19 pm

OH was walking home from the bus stop a couple of nights ago when she saw a fox ahead. The fox saw her and, instead of turning away, it ran straight up to her.

Rubbish photo quality though from a phone in the dark...

by **earthmaiden** » October 18th, 2017, 7:29 pm

Wow! What an encounter! It looks quite a young one so perhaps was curious. I wish I wasn't driving when I have seen badgers running (waddling) around our streets in the early hours of the morning searching rubbish bags, I would love a photo of them!

by **Zosherooney** » October 18th, 2017, 9:20 pm

Am I righting thinking fox and badger ??? I like both but not in my vicinity..... foxes and cats don't go..... badgers dig my garden up... sometimes in huge proportions...... Sorry EM.

by **Herbidacious** » October 19th, 2017, 10:22 am

They seem to have little fear. I encountered one coming home on Tuesday. When it saw me, it stopped and stared a me for ages, then continued to stare at me as I walked on.

Only ever once seen a badger at that was in Wytham Woods. (Wonderful place.)

by **Busybee** » October 19th, 2017, 11:48 am

Despite living room in the countryside I have yet to see a live badger. Lots dead on the road, but none alive.

I am constantly on the lookout for one.
