I've received a few messages asking to continue the 1000 words thread. It has obviously given many people pleasure and some positivity. For anyone who doesn't know, posters come on with their photographs of pretty much anything and we take it from there. Nature is always a good one.

Spring starting to happen in our local country park

Beautiful photos Lisagran, you must be in the south ?

Bellanonna Mon 01-Mar-21 20:18:55

Just lovely, Lisagran !

Lisagran Mon 01-Mar-21 20:35:28

I’m in the West Midlands, Nana3

Posted this on the good morning thread. Just a jug of daffodils from the garden but the shadow across the worktop fascinated me

Nana3 Mon 01-Mar-21 20:58:37

Your weather must be lovely Lisagran, no blossom yet here in the NW, we've had some sunny days so looking forward to it ?

Nana3 Tue 02-Mar-21 13:24:16

The shadows are like a work of art Laura, the daffs are lovely too.

Looking upwards, this morning.

Visible devastation after the floods a couple of weeks ago at the prom this morning

Netting up the cliffs this afternoon to stop rock falls.

Spotted this on our woodland walk yesterday. At first glance I thought it was new little shoots of ivy, only realised it was a fungus when I looked a bit more closely.

Nana3 Wed 03-Mar-21 22:26:36

I'll look that one up grannyqueenie .

Nana3 Thu 04-Mar-21 13:44:25

I think it could be this one grannyqueenie, it can be green.

Lovely bracket fungus, GQ but I’ve never seen a green one. It’s beautiful.

I rather think my photo at the beach this week is worthy of a Monet painting! The pastel shades were beautiful.

Nana3 Sat 06-Mar-21 23:14:02

Beautiful photo Ellianne and painting.
I miss going to the seaside, it will be my first day trip after lockdown.

Ellianne Mon 08-Mar-21 13:16:02

Decided to get up high today rather than always at beach level.

Peace

Ellianne Mon 08-Mar-21 17:37:02

Where's that blossoming?
Photos where mountains meet the sea remind us how different aspects of nature live in harmony.

A little bit of wishful thinking from me. It won’t be long now.....

Lisagran Mon 08-Mar-21 18:40:03

I put your photo through the Waterlogue app, Ellianne (= “painting”)

Lisagran Mon 08-Mar-21 18:40:52

Little irises just coming out.....

Ellianne Mon 08-Mar-21 18:44:17

Oooh thanks Lisa.
I found something on my phone that said "cartoon" and I tried it. The result looked a bit Lowry like?
Amazing how you can play around with the style of photos.

Blossoming Mon 08-Mar-21 19:10:57

It’s Norway Ellianne. I love it so much.

Ellianne Tue 09-Mar-21 12:09:49

Another photo from yesterday. This stone is called the frog! I couldnt resist stroking it!
