Life’s all about taking opportunities when they arise, here are a few I’ve seen.

Weekly Photo Challenge – Sunset
This photo holds a special memory for me. It was taken a few years ago, at a time when I wasn’t sure which path to take. I took some time out to be on my own, to try to make up my mind what I wanted to do. The sunset was just so magical and being near the sea lifted my spirits, made me feel calm and able to make my decision.
A few interesting faces
A large centrepiece
A confrontation
A group of women
These photographs were taken in the remains of a huge Roman villa in Southern Cyprus. The detail in all the mosaics was utterly amazing, the workmanship unbelievable and the colours in some were still bright, almost vivid.
Textures – from jellyfish to a dry stone wall
Texture – “the visual and tactile quality of a surface….”

Paths leading here and there
I love beaches. I love winding pathways that could lead to the start of an adventure or a leisurely walk, you’re never quite sure just what you’ll find at the end. This one led onto South Beach in Miami, one lovely sunny day in early March.
Another March day, this time on Ile de Re and a path that led eventually to a little harbour and a large, steaming mug of hot chocolate. Delicious!!
Finally, this one is closer to home, wild flowers from a path behind my sister’s house. Aren’t they just stunning?
Hope you enjoy my photographs too
Weekly Photo Challenge “Up”
