It will come as a surprise to most of you to discover that for the past 100 days I have been publishing a photograph from somewhere in our garden. The point is just to make a record. I chose the picture for a variety of reasons – the colour, the texture, the arrangement. I don’t claim that they are good pictures – but each one is a recording of a particular day, maybe for comparison at a later date.

Some are out of focus! For some reason, even on a really calm day, the wind will blow at just exactly the moment I want to take a closeup! This is the first picture on the blog. If you would like to see a few more this is the link. Can’t promise I’ll keep it up for another 100 days, but I’m hoping – even if I only show a picture of the ground in the middle of winter!

Amazingly I’ve seen views of over 400 in a day! It was meant as a personal record – but seems to have hit a nerve somewhere.
