TREES & ROOTS


Looking up whilst in the woods this morning.......and rotating the same photo made me wonder if the roots might look like this underground?

Windmill



This floodlit windmill jumps out of the darkness everytime we drive past.......its situated  to the left of the slip road near Tilbury and tells us we are on the right road to band rehearsals!

Another birthday.............

After being woken at 6.30 am by the kids playing "happy birthday" sung by The Muppets on the I-pod touch, a whole host of cards and fantastic presents were opened .....followed this evening by a vindaloo and a bottle of red (not forgetting the company) Tim had celebrated his birthday in style......yet again!       Talking of style,  very dapper he looked too in his new birthday shirt!

Love in the mist

 
As I didn't take any photos on Jan 1st, I thought I would post two today. This photo was one of my favourites from 2009. It was chosen as a winner from 985 entries of black and white photos  and is to be used in a video for a new art website online.

Tim



Just caught sight of Tim sitting near the candle.......had to snap a shot
