Spring Shadows


I love this time of year, cold and clear with a hint of the start of better weather.  Such bright light and interesting shadows.  The trees are starting to sprout leaves and the migratory birds are slowly making their way back - the birdsong enriching the estuary soundscape.   The river tide is well in and although it is still comparatively freezing, the mercury is at least making an effort.






I have been most fortunate in finding a place that organises arty/crafty days. Yesterday, I made a victorian box and for a first go, it actually came out looking pretty ok.  I have my eye set on a rag rug making day and a scrap journalling day too.  I have come to a stage where I am fed up being squashed flat by academia and since there is only one assignment due re the module before I finish the half year.  Taking up arty/crafty stuff is just an excellent way for me to unwind, plus it gives me ideas for script/novel ideas too.

I like the second tall one of the signpost patch - it shows the shadows on the road more.. Amazing how GROWN the ditches are... soon be Queen Anne's lace!

and the box - that is enchanting! all the decorations yourself and all? Do they tell you what to bring? or have the a sort of ragbag of bits and pieces to delve into?

Rag-rugging is super if you've lots of torn tights!! they make super rugs! (or old silk scarves and stuff... tis MAGIC fun!)

Oh, your box is lovely and I love the last shot of the lake. It looks likes it still a little cold there, though.
