Ooh, lovely, Bathsheba - wish I was by the sea just now! We often go down to the Welsh coast in our campervan. This was Parrog beach last year. We saw seals that day

One of our local beaches late afternoon.

Katek just wow

Some stunning photos on here, folks!

Great camera minimoon. I’m thinking of getting a monopod to help steady mine - never a gatepost handy when you want one!

Our beach, at sunrise, on the NE coast.

Janiepops, I had always wanted a painting by numbers set, but money was very tight in our house, so it didn't happen.
When I was twelve, I got up on Christmas morning to find my present was a painting by numbers set of two ballerinas. It was my best Christmas present ever!
I didn't know you could still get them.
Your paintings are lovely!

Katek, that’s stunning!

View from our beach at 8 this morning.

Greyduster Its a Canon EOS 4000D I think, or one in that range. I've not used it very much but it has a good zoom lens. Its a bit ungainly to hold when on the highest zoom, fortunately I had a gatepost to rest on when I took the photo of the moon.

Love this photo of my fireplace...was a marble clad has fire when we bought the house...I tore it all out,had gas pipe capped and created this...fire surround from a junk shop..think its Art deco

It must have a good zoom function, minimoon to get a shot like that!?? What sort is it?

DH received a new camera from his employer when he reached retirement age.
He's never used it, but I took this photo of the moon to try it out. I was very pleased with the result.

Riverwalk I ‘ve PM’d you.

And I’m so glad I noticed my misstype of your name Janiepops, where I’d mistakenly typed two ‘o’s instead of ‘op’ in the last syllable

Oh they’re beautiful janiepops. I’ve never done any paint by numbers pics (except online on my phone!)

Scallops before and after, delicious

That's the idea Bellanonna, you're right every picture is special. We have a beautiful country, nature is beautiful, art is exquisite in all its forms, a pair of boots has its own story and so on.
Hopefully a fun and uplifting weekend thread for many!

This is a brilliant thread. Must be the best one on GN at the moment. I couldn’t single out any one picture, as they are all special in their different ways. Food for the soul, needed right now.

During lockdown I restarted paint by numbers, and wow, it’s SO relaxing, and creative for those of us that aren’t naturals, but like to paint. Suitcase painting will be finished today.
Be warned, it’s addictive!

Hooray, the donkey sanctuary has finally re opened. I'm not sure why the donkeys went into isolation for so long.

Great picture Greyduster, not surprised you were pleased with it!

I took this when we were on holiday in Cornwall in August. I was rather pleased with it.

Those fishcakes look fab! What did you use for the crumb?

OMG! Fishcakes! Me please, Puzzler!?
