July in a photo a day
July 30, 2012
Perhaps July wasn’t the best month to start ‘a photo a day’. I’m always seduced by the illusion that I’ll have more time to do things on holiday. It’s never the case (especially when I’m juggling work too) – but the creative side of my brain is definitely up for some more stimulation. So I put my toe in the water for FatMumSlim’s photo-a-day challenge (the catalyst was one of my favourite reads London Bakes). We started in rainy Cheltenham, via Calais to Switzerland, then the sun shone in Devon…. perfect. Until, crash, I dropped my camera and damaged the lens. Hopefully August will be more productive and less accident-prone (with a new lens)!
So an abbreviated and fragmented month’s worth of images:
-
- self portrait – arrive in UK, don mac
-
- Busy – bee on lavender in my Mum’s garden
-
- On the floor – me taking the picture of sunset that is
-
- my favourite colour – blue (in Nyon)
-
- texture – plane tree in Nyon
-
- open – a fantastic open terrace over Lake Geneva at the Montreaux Jazz Festival
-
- my addiction – good wine
-
- upside down – fox-glove from underneath on a Summer’s evening in Devon

What a wonderful selection of photos, I love it when a month takes you to all sorts of different countries and places. What a pain about your camera lens though!
Thank you also for your very kind words about my blog, I’m so glad it inspired you to start the photo a day challenge!
I’ve loved this challenge. My new lens just arrived so I’ve got a fresh spring in my step. Your photos are gorgeous.
