158-2020 – Heavy rain

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about the heavy rain everyone with a garden was waiting for. It’s wonderful when is sunny and hot for a while, but like humans plants NEED water to survive. Rain/water is one of the main ingredients of our echo system and is really hard for me to believe that rain/water appeared out of nothing and totally by chance, without divine intervention. I call it divine intervention, some call it GOD, some call it The Architect but in the end, sooner or later we all going to […]

157-2020 – Keeping the balance

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about keeping the balance on a wooden beam in a new park for kids we discovered not far from where we live.

152-2020 – Homemade Bird Feeder

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about a homemade bird feeder we’ve made from paper towel cardboard tubes.

Then I run a piece in string through the tube and hang it from a branch of the cherry tree in the back of the garden. Now we are waiting for hungry birds to have a […]

151-2020 – Seven Sisters

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is of the beautiful Seven Sisters, a series of 7 white chalk cliffs along the English Channel in South Downs National Park. We walked all the way to the Belle Tout Lighthouse, where we stopped for a family picnic on a beautiful sunny afternoon. On our way back we dipped our feet in the sea water and layer down on the rocky beach. Everyone was keeping their distance and 99% were mask free. Like, comment & share!

147-2020 – Tall Grass

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is looking at the tall grass in the communal garden forgotten by the Basildon Council, probably due to Covid-19 situation. If someone from the Basildon Council is reading this, maybe they are considering sending someone to cut the grass before our house is swallowed by the tall grass.

145-2020 – The Corpus Clock

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is of the Corpus Clock in Cambridge. The Corpus Clock is one of the most distinctive public monuments in Cambridge and has been admired by residents and tourists since its inauguration in 2008. It is an unusual device for the measurement of time being both hypnotically beautiful and deeply disturbing. We spent a wonderful afternoon in Cambridge and the weather was wonderful. Below are some of our memories from Cambridge. Like, comment & share!

144-2020 – Land snail

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is about a land snail hanging upside down from a shrub’s tiny branch. This snails seems to defy gravity or is just simply holding tightly to the leafs. I don’t know if I caught it having dinner or getting ready for bed. I snapped a photo and move on with my life.

143-2020 – Inside Sundial

Today’s photo of the day, part of “a photo a day challenge 2020”, is from Inside the Sundial metal art work at Basildon Town Centre Roundabout. This was taken with the Insta360 Pro 360 camera. The image looks a bit distorted but this is the main reason why I choose it. You have to imagine a metal ball with an arrow running through it and me inside the ball. From the outside it looks like this. Like, comment & share!
