Sunday Still: I’d #Rather Be…..
I’d rather be….
in the shade of a tree
I’d rather be….
beside the sea
I’d rather be….
drinking tea
I’d rather be….
having a corroboree
I’d rather be….
watching a bee
I’d rather be….
having a coffee
I’d rather be….
sitting in a gum tree
I’d rather be….
making whoopee
Want to be with me?
Terri’s Sunday Stills Monthly Colour Challenge: Days of #Grey and #White
John’s Cellpic Sunday
Sitting in the Dragonfly Cafe in Lismore a few years ago (pre-flooding events) The white walls and simple pictures and decore drew me in and I had to grab a photo and playing with the settings on my phone photo software, these images were the result.
A lovely song from way back when to enjoy
The colour version
More black and white
Quite washed out with the whites trying to dominate
As you can see I am not all that good using my phone for a camera
Terri’s Sunday Stills: Taking the #Plunge
A Lewins Honeyeater decides to have a bath.
“This looks like a great place for a quick dip”
“Well….in I go”
“That was rather bracing!”
“Time to get out and dry off”
“Good. The sun is finally out again.”
Terri’s Sunday Stills: What did YOU do in #2022
I intended to do a selection of YOUR favourite photos over the year. Graham from Hawaii had a great idea so I am going to steal his idea for my 2022 wrap up. Grab a photo from a post and add the post link in case you would like to see more of what is in that post.
It appears my home page and my photo challenge, Last on the Card, are the two most popular pages on my blog every month. So I have selected the most popular post for the month. Let me know if your favourite photo appears.
JANUARY
As seen in My last post for 2021
FEBRUARY
The Seagull was part of Finding Gold
MARCH

APRIL
A selection of wet fluffy birds in After the bath but these three little Thornbills stole hearts
MAY
The bees were popular as much as the flowers in Life of a Blue Ginger
JUNE

In Parrot patterns you didn’t have a favourite, you seemed to enjoy the whole post, photos of a female King Parrot and the silly story
So to 2022…..
Sunday Stills: The #Mysterious is a Beautiful Thing
I started this post on Sunday but the original went away from being beautiful. This is a dark post as well but I find that once we are in the dark, then mystery can be all around.
So roll up for the mystery tour
Terri’s Sunday Stills: Through a #Glass Darkly?
Do you want to look into the glass? Is it darkly enough for you?
Terri’s Sunday Stills Monthly Colour Challenge: All About #Apricot
I wasn’t sure if I had any apricot images. They all seem either too orange or yellow to me. Of course they are mainly flowers.
Terri’s Sunday Stills: A Wildflower #Solstice
The fire was lit
to celebrate
the Winter Solstice
the warming glow
smoke drifting
into the trees
The sun was setting
casting a stillness
over the bush
birds at roost
silence
only broken by
sounds of cars
in the distance
on the highway
heading home
from working in town
A car drives
down my road
the crunch of gravel
another coming
home for dinner
Here’s cheers
to the Winter Solstice
a wine and snacks
crackers
cheese
olives
sopressa
the warmth of
the fire
The sky darkens
the bush is quiet
all are home
the faint sound
music from
down the road
the faint reverse beeping
of the final
truck to
leave the quarry
silence at last
darkness decends
The final embers
the final glow
of a winters day
Winter Solstice
goodbye my friend
until next year
when a fire
will be lit
to celebrate
the Winter Solstice
