Photo magic

I've been looking through my photos, grouping together some of the ones I have taken on my morning walks and on my walks into work along by the river.

I had been looking at some of the entries for a local photography competition, and was quite downhearted at how good some of them were. They made me feel that my poor efforts were just that....poor efforts.

Then I decided, like I said, to look through my photos....and I was pleasantly surprised.

I'm not sure that I have any that are up to the high standards set for the competition, but they certainly give me a lot of pleasure, and what more can I ask? I've sat here for over an hour, looking through photos, cropping some, trying out different effects on others, and just really enjoying getting lost in them.

It's actually only recently dawned on me that photography is my hobby!!! And I am grateful for that!

Here's one of my favourites from this evenings meanderings.

Gratefully yours.
