365 - I give up

Ok, I've had enough. I've not been enjoying it for a while now. It's a lot more stress than I would like. It feels a bit lame to quite this close to the end but there you go. So here are the last ones I've taken. The 9th one is an old photo for the prompt Memories. It's one of my favourite pictures I've ever taken.

365 - Nov 1st-7th

November's pictures are all about being thankful.

November 1st - Yourself. I am exceptionally thankful to be here and to appreciate my life.

November 2nd - The Sun to Light Your Path. As we head towards midwinter I am very grateful for any sunlight.

November 3rd - Good Smells. I love the smell of both wet and dry leaves during Autumn. It's my 2nd favourite smell.

November 4th - Movement. I am grateful for my ball winder. Makes winding yarn a breeze and it's fun to watch.

November 5th - Where I stand. I am grateful for my health. I have a problem with my back which means occasionally I'm in quite a bit of pain. Thanks to an osteomyologist I am rarely incapacitated anymore.

November 6th - Mother Nature. I am grateful for pumpkins. They are fun and tasty. Plus the stalks are so gnarly and cool!

November 7th - The Little Things. I live in a country that gets quite a bit of rain. Rather than complaining about it I try to give thanks. I am grateful to live in a country that has such easy access to water. I try never to forget that not everyone does.

 12th - From my Garden. Technically from the farm not my garden but close enough ^_^

13th - Grip. This one stumped me for ages and then I spotted all of my husband's clamps neatly rowed up.

14th - What a Mess. Autumn makes a beautiful mess everywhere. I love everything about fallen leaves. The colours, the crunch and the smell. Even the smell when they are wet and starting to decay.

15th - Changes. Autumn is all about changes. We are hitting the end of the blackberry season but there are still some ripening and changing colour.

365 - Epic catch up

So you remember that 365 photo thing I was doing? Yeah I barely remember it either. Life kinda got in the way. But I am all caught up now. I'm not going to post them all here. Do you know how far behind I was?! But they can all be seen at the slide show. If you've been following then you want to start around image 196.

No light is more beautiful that that filtering through trees.
