Photo of the Week - Week 42

As posted on my other blog:

I decided I wanted to buy myself a bunch of flowers this week so I could photograph them. As we walked into the supermarket, I mentioned to my sister my intention, and she suggested we look in the reduced area. When we had a look, there was a huge bunch that were originally £15 (about $24) and they were down to £9 ($14). I said that I was not going to pay that much for flowers that they would be giving away by the end of the day. The guy pricing said to name a price, so I said a fiver – £5 ($8) So at a third of the price, I think that was a good deal. They were only for me anyway.

Week 42

Sunday Photo Fiction - October 19th 2014

EDIT: I made an error and didn't select Schedule, so this has published two hours early this week.

Every week on a Sunday, a new photo is used as a prompt for Flash Fiction challenge using around 200 words based on that image. Your story does not have to be exactly what the item in the photo is as long as there is at least a reference to it. You can make it anything you want, and enjoy what you write, and we will as well.

Please remember to add your piece to the list of others by clicking on the little creature, and you can also add the creature to your own post by clicking on the link beneath it. Have fun, and I look forward to reading what you have written.

Coming Soon ...

In the next couple of weeks, I am going to be starting to add things to this blog. I am going to be adding Camera hints and tips, cheats and manuals. If you have a camera and you need a manual for it, let me know and I will add it on as soon as you let me know.

I was going to do this on my other blog, but I think this one needs something that is solely this and gives people a reason to come here rather than just "same thing different blog".

Watch this space, it won't be long.

Is A Clock On The Moon A Lunar Tick?

I took some photos the other day of the moon. I suppose that should say that I took some photos the other night of the moon. The clouds were around it, and I liked how they looked with it. A lot of the photos didn't come out well with the focus being on either the clouds or the moon, but here are some of the ones that I think are the better ones. 

If anyone knows how I can form a gallery from these or a slideshow, can you let me know please, as I am still working my way around Blogger. 

Haibun Thinking - October 14th 2014

Welcome to Haibun Thinking.  A weekly challenge to get your creative juices running. The challenge is to create something from one of the prompts below using the form of the Haibun. A piece of work ending in a Haiku style poem of three lines. After you have completed it, please add your link to the InLinkz frog creature for all to read.

This also appears on my WordPress blog if you prefer that, which is here. 

Thank you for taking part.

Haibun is a Japanese literary form that combines one or more paragraphs of your written narrative (prose) with a concentrated (short) poem – the haiku. Hai stands for haiku, bun stands for prose.

The haibun and/or the haiku present a relationship between the nature of the human experience and ‘nature’ (the natural order of life).

A piece of fiction or a memory finishing with a Haiku style poem.

I Am Impressed - And Thank You

I have only started using Blogger for a short while, and I have found that I am receiving a lot more feedback, comments and "+1" than I expected. 

I thought only one or two people would come by, but on each of my posts, there have been at least 3 G+ +1's and one with 10. 

I really appreciate the support I have received on this new venture. Thank you all.
