Well, I've passed through a few times...

The view from home.


More of where you live, please.

Loving all the pictures - definitely keeping the theme.

This is from my house and village toward the earth sculpture I photographed from before.

I did hear a you tuber saying proper photographers don't shoot sunsets...nice to see they are wrong.

Proper photographers don't spend their time talking rubbish on youtube

This is a three minute walk from home, the shortest route to the woods. I noticed I had titled this "Path to the past" - veeery funny. There are some earth stoves by the tree to the left of the path, dated to about 400 BCE



More from around where you live

Much the same view as I posted a bit further up - I just wanted to prove that I'm not a proper photographer, if there was any doubt



More of the local stuff, with or without sunsets. Whoops, scratch that - Porffor already ordered pictures of hobbies!

love the sunset, and am totally relieved. Sunsets are my favourite part of where we live.

no order I promise.

My hobby is taking pictures. To convince people, must I bash my head against a wall? (My imitation of a Dick Tracy character = Flattop Jones)
NEXT: Because "hobbies" is the subject of this month's contest, rather than compete with that for images I'll change the theme here to something spiral.

This theme ran several years ago and brought out interesting and creative images, so keep it going with SPIRALS
