Anthers

Never have I appreciated blossom more. This situation is like living in a piece of poetry by Keats...

P.S This is not the best macro quality ever. I am taking some photos on my Galaxy A40 phone which is not highest spec, but has a good camera. This project is becoming about spontaneity and truth--(and the truth is that I am taking walks and not always being super prepared. I'm trying to live in the moment.)

Yellow Fabrics

This was taken months ago in Robin's Nest Emporium, Fareham. I knew that I was going to be following colour themes, so I took this in preparation. At that time I would never have thought that I wouldn't be going back out to take photos there for the foreseeable future. I love that place and I hope they can make it through this economic disaster.

Lichen

I took this a week or so ago now with my macro lens. It is a thin branch of a tree.

Sunglasses Weather

This was taken on Saturday on a walk into the local countryside. The weather was just right, not too hot or too chilly. There was a nice breeze and I was in a T shirt and had a hoodie tied round my waist, 90s style. It felt free, like a blast from the past, when there were fewer responsibilities and there was time stretched out before me. This situation has given us all a change of perspective, one way or another.

Makeup Monday #4 Enhancing Eyeshadow

Eyeshadow is one of those makeup items that many people do not regard as a staple. Let's face it, if push came to shove, mascara and concealer are most people's 'desert island' products. I'm not here to dispute that, but I do have a love for eyeshadow (and more specifically, finding the perfect neutral shades to enhance my eye colour). Finding the right colour palette for you is part colour theory, part trial and error. In this post, I talk about both. If eyes really are the windows to the soul, good eye make-up is like finding a beautiful pair of curtains. So if you feel your nets are looking a bit yellow, or your chintz pattern is a bit dated...
